Projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown (projected) into the air when, after the initial force that launches the object, air resistance is negligible and the only other force that object experiences is the force of gravity.

Projectile motion is the motion of an object projected in a gravitational field along a curved path. Learn the kinematic quantities, acceleration, velocity, displacement, and time of flight of a projectile, and how to calculate its range and maximum height.
Projectile motion is a form of motion where an object moves in a parabolic path. The path followed by the object is called its trajectory. Projectile motion occurs when a force is applied at the beginning of the trajectory for the launch (after this the projectile is subject only to the gravity).
Learn what is projectile motion, the fundamental concept of physics that describes the trajectory of objects thrown into the air under gravity. Find out the formulas, examples, applications and FAQs of projectile motion.
Projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air, subject to only the acceleration of gravity. The object is called a projectile, and its path is called its trajectory. …
Projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air, subject only to acceleration as a result of gravity. The applications of projectile motion in physics and engineering are numerous.
Projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown or projected into the air, subject to only the acceleration of gravity. The object is called a projectile, and its path is called its trajectory.
