It typically
A projectile will travel on a straight line unless external forces act upon it. Gravity will pull the projectile downward, i.e. affect its vertical velocity component. This is why the projectile will decelerate upwards, reach a maximum elevation, and accelerate back down to earth. The force vector of air resistance points in the opposite direction of motion, slowing the projectile down. For example, If the projectile is going forward and up, air resistance is pushing it backwards (horizontal component) and down (vertical component). Without air resistance, there is no external force acting upon the horizontal velocity component and the projectiles ground speed will stay constant as it gains altitude and falls back down to earth.
In the absence of air resistance, the force of gravity has no effect on the horizontal component of a projectile's velocity, and causes the vertical component of its velocity to increase by 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second downward for every second of its flight.

That combination is called "projectile motion". In the absence of air resistance, its shape is always a parabola.
Yes, in the absence of air resistance, which is the way the situation is always viewed by everyone except Navy gunners.

The absence of friction makes it a 100% efficient space to see the reaction between any interacting objects.
absence of friction...no air resistance
-- In the absence of air resistance, the object's diameter has no effect at all on the projectile motion. -- In the presence of air resistance, one has to know everything about the object AND the air in order to have a prayer of calculating the effect.
Walking , if there is no friction you wont be able to walk properly . Another important thing is driving . In the absence of friction the car wheels wont be able to rotate probably thus the car will just go in circles.
Without air resistance, the path of a projectile over a small part of the Earth's surface, under the influence of gravity alone, is always a piece of a parabola ... as long as it's not launched straight up or straight down.
100J
In that case, the total mechanical energy won't change.
