If you throw ball at an angle above horizontal, you will see the path of the ball looks like an inverted parabola. This is result of the fact that the ball's initial velocity has a horizontal and vertical component. If we neglect the effect of air resistance, the horizontal component is constant. But the vertical component is always decreasing at the rate of 9.8 m/s each second. To illustrate this, let the initial velocity be 49 m/s and the initial angle be 30˚.
Horizontal component = 49 * cos 30, Vertical = 49 * sin 30 = 24.5 m/s
As the ball rises from the ground to its maximum height, its vertical velocity decreases from 24.5 m/s to 0 m/s. As the ball falls from its maximum height to the ground, its vertical velocity decreases from 0 m/s to -24.5 m/s. Since the distance it rises is equal to the distance it falls, the time that it is rising is equal to the time it is falling. This means the total time is equal to twice the time it is falling. This is the reason that the shape of the ball's path is an inverted parabola. At the maximum height, the ball is moving horizontally. If you do a web search for projectile motion, you will see graphs illustrating this.
projectile motion means means the motion of a particle under the effect of gravity after being given some initial velocity by an external force. its path called trajectory is parabolic. so it includes motion in both x and y axes. the difference being that in x axis it is uniform motion and in y axis it is accelerated motion

Two-dimensional motion that is not always projectile motion would be circular motion, where an object moves in a circular path. Two-dimensional motion that is not projectile motion and does not accelerate the object could be uniform circular motion, where the speed is constant but the direction changes.
The two things that cause projectile motion are gravity, which acts vertically, and an initial horizontal velocity. These two factors combined result in the curved path followed by a projectile.
Projectile motion has two components horizontal motion and vertical motion. Gravity affects only the vertical motion of projectile motion.

Only one unfortunately.
The two things that cause projectile motion are gravity, which acts vertically, and an initial horizontal velocity. These two factors combined result in the curved path followed by a projectile.
The two components of projectile motion are the horizontal motion, which is constant and unaffected by gravity, and the vertical motion, which is affected by gravity and follows a parabolic path.
The two main forces acting on a projectile are gravity, which pulls the projectile downward, and air resistance, which acts in the opposite direction to slow down the projectile's motion. Other forces, such as propulsion or wind, can also affect the motion of a projectile.
Two forces that act on a projectile are gravity, which pulls the projectile downwards, and air resistance, which opposes the projectile's motion through the air.
The two forces acting on a projectile in motion are gravity, which always acts downward, and air resistance, which opposes the projectile's motion through the air. Gravity causes the projectile to follow a curved path, while air resistance slows down its movement.
Projectile motion consists of two components: horizontal motion and vertical motion. The horizontal component is constant and unaffected by gravity. The vertical component is influenced by gravity and accelerates downwards. By combining these two components, the path of a projectile can be accurately predicted using equations of motion.
