Assuming no air resistance, all projectiles have:

Question

Choose one • 10 points

Constant vertical motion and accelerated horizontal motion.

Constant vertical motion and constant horizontal motion.

Accelerated vertical motion and constant horizontal motion.

Accelerated vertical motion and accelerated horizontal motion.
Best answer

Answer 1

The best answer is:

Accelerated vertical motion and constant horizontal motion.

In projectile motion (ignoring air resistance), the vertical motion is affected by gravity, which causes it to accelerate downwards. Meanwhile, the horizontal motion remains constant because there are no horizontal forces acting on the projectile (again, assuming no air resistance).
