Which part of projectile motion is affected by gravity?

The vertical motion of a projectile is affected by gravity. Gravity acts to accelerate the projectile downward while it is in motion, causing its vertical velocity to increase or decrease accordingly.


Projectile following a parabolic path on a circle?

A projectile following a parabolic path on a circle can be understood as the motion of an object launched at an angle along the circumference of the circle. As the object moves, gravity causes it to follow a parabolic trajectory while the curvature of the circle influences its path. The resulting motion combines the circular motion of the circle with the parabolic motion of the projectile.


How does ballistic refer to projectile motion?

The term ballistic refers to the trajectory or path taken by a projectile. Normally it refers to that part of a projectiles flight that is unpowered and unguided except by the forces of gravity and (if applicable) air resistance.


What type of path does a projectile follow in the absence of air resistance?

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.


Why projectile follow a curve path?

A projectile, launched by an initial force, such as exploding gunpowder in the barrel of a gun, travels in a straight line unless it is acted upon by another force. A projectile launched into the air from the earth's surface, is subject to the acceleration of gravity, which bends it's trajectory into a parabolic arc back to earth.

Where can one research projectile motion?

Research on projectile motion is part of the physics in two dimension category. Videos can be found on youtube studying how projectiles and trajectories correlate with one another. University of physics (all editions) are textbooks that involve projectile motion in several different categories. This includes: being throw off a cliff at an angle, free body diagram, and launched straight up/down.
