Is projectile motion a motion in one-dimension-the direction of gravity?

No. Neglecting air resistance, the projectile follows a parabola.
The horizontal distance is proportional to 'time', and the vertical distance is
proportional to 'time squared'. This is exactly the description of a parabola.

Is the path that a thrown objects follows?
projectile motion
What acts in the direction opposite of the objects direction in motion?
The resistance of an objects surroundings to its motion. The rugs nape versus a ball rolling across it. Air having to get out of the way of a spinning tennis ball. Resistance. Of course gravity can have a positive or negative influence on an objects motion and vector. Entropy concurs all motion.
How does the direction of friction compare to the direction of Motion?
By definition, friction is opposite of the direction of motion.
How does the direction of friction compare to the direct motion?
The direction of the force of friction is opposite of the direction of the motion.
Which sports have horizontal projectile motion only?
I think bowling would be one.
Is projectile motion a motion in one dimension the direction of gravity?
No, gravity is only one of the vectors in projectile motion.
What is the unbalanced force that changes the direction of motion of a projectile?
gravity?
How does the gravity affect the two components of projectile motion?
Projectile motion has two components horizontal motion and vertical motion. Gravity affects only the vertical motion of projectile motion.
How does gravity affect the 2 components of projectile motion?
-- Gravity causes the vertical component of projectile motion to vary according to the local acceleration of gravity. -- Gravity has no effect at all on the horizontal component of projectile motion.
The height of a projectile in motion is dependent on what?
Projectile motion is a form of motion wherein an object moves along a curved path under the action of gravity only. The height of a projectile in motion is dependent on gravity.
Two-dimensional motion is not always projectile motion In two-dimensional motion that is not projectile motion is not accelerating the object?

Gravity
Is a feather falling in a vacuum projectile motion?
A feather falling in a vacuum is not considered as a projectile motion. Gravity, which is absent in a vacuum, is one of the components of projectile motion.
What type of motion describes the horizontal component of a projectile?
The type of motion that describes the horizontal component of a projectile is horizontal projectile motion. It is influenced by the downward force of gravity.
Objects in projectile motion are pulled down by?
gravity
