What curved path an object follows when thrown?
Actually, if you were to ask a Gunners Mate in the Navy, he'd tell you that the curved path of an object thrown is called a trajectory. And in a practical case, trajectories are not parabolic when traveled in a gas, like our atmosphere. They are parabolic if and only if the objects are not also acted on by drag and angular momentum forces. And any good curve ball pitcher in baseball can prove that.
Curved path of an object thrown or launched on or near the surface of a planet?
Projectile motion
Why do you have to aim above a target that you want to hit with a thrown object?
Under the influence of gravity, every thrown object begins to accelerate downward as soon as it leaves the hand. The point of the aim must be above the target in order to compensate for the distance of fall during the object's flight time.
If object thrown vertically on moon will it travel farther than one thrown on earth?
Yes, because there is less gravity on the moon. Also, because there is no air friction on the Moon. However, a frisbee thrown on the Moon will not travel as far as one properly thrown on Earth, because the shape of the frisbee generates lift which will keep it flying farther. With no air on the Moon, a frisbee cannot "fly".
What celestial space object can a meteor come from?
The average space rock that becomes a meteor is typically a fragment from a comet, or a shard thrown off when two asteroids collide.

What path does a rock thrown horozontally from a building follow?
The rock follows a parabolic path.
What is the best way to analyze an object thrown into the air?
whenever an object is thrown in the air we must know the initial velocity with which the object has been thrown.
What object exhibit two dimensional?
An object thrown upward at an angle An object that's thrown horizontally off a cliff and allowed to fall
What Object that is thrown?
A projectile.
Why does the speed dcreses when an object is thrown vertically up?
whyh does the sped decreases when an object is thrown vertically up
What's a Projectile motion?
Projectile motion is a form of motion in which an object or particle is thrown near the earth's surface, and it moves along a curved path.
What type of motion is exhibited by a ball thrown up from the surface of earth?
An object thrown up from the surface of the Earth exhibits ballistic or projectile motion. Actually, it doesn't matter where it's "thrown" from; any object which accelerates only due to gravity follows a curve that's a conic section. This can be a circle, an ellipse, a parabola, or a hyperbola (technically, one branch of a hyperbola) depending on its initial velocity and starting position, and all of these are considered "ballistic" trajectories.
What shape does the path of a thrown ball follow?
The ball follows a parabolic path when thrown. In a vacuum (with no air or other forces acting upon it) the gravitational pull of the earth causes the ball to accelerate toward the earth (9.8m/sec
Why would a baseball go higher if it were thrown from the surface of the Moon than if it were thrown with the same velocity from the surface of Earth?
because of 0 gravity
What increases overtime of a thrown object?
horizontal
