Projectile Motion

Projectile motion is a form of motion where a particle (called a projectile) is thrown obliquely near the earth's surface, it moves along a curved path under the action of gravity. The path followed by a projectile motion is called its trajectory. Projectile motion only occurs when there is one force applied at the beginning of the trajectory after which there is no interference apart from gravity.

Famous quotes containing the word motion:

    “If we shall stand still
    In fear our motion will be mocked or carped at,
    We should take root here where we sit, or sit
    State-statues only.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
