Why is the object thrown up always comes down?

The object comes back down after being thrown up because of gravity, a force that attracts things towards each other. When an object is thrown up, the force of gravity eventually overcomes the initial momentum and pulls the object back towards the center of the Earth.


Is it true that the motion of an object thrown at an angle is projectile motion?

Yes, that's correct. Projectile motion is the motion of an object that is thrown or launched into the air and moves under the influence of gravity. When an object is thrown at an angle, it follows a curved path known as projectile motion, which can be analyzed using equations of motion.

Is the acceleration the same on an object that is drop or when its thrown?

No, the acceleration is not the same for an object that is dropped and an object that is thrown. When an object is dropped, it experiences a constant acceleration due to gravity. When an object is thrown, its acceleration can vary depending on factors such as the initial velocity and direction.


What do you call of an object that is not yet being used?

An object that is not currently being used is typically referred to as idle, dormant, or inactive.

What can be caught but cant be thrown?

A cold or illness can be caught, but it cannot be thrown like a ball or object.


How are the horizontal velocity and the vertical velocity of thrown objects related?

The horizontal velocity of a thrown object is independent of its vertical velocity. This means that an object can be thrown horizontally with a certain speed, while also being affected by gravity vertically. The two motions are separate and do not directly influence each other.


What happens if several handlers match the type of the thrown object?

If several handlers match the type of the thrown object, the handler that is most specific to the thrown object's type will be selected to handle the exception. This means that the handler that matches the closest to the exact type of the thrown object will be chosen over more general handlers. If no specific handler is found, the program will throw a compilation error.
