What is the vertical acceleration of a projectile at the top of its path? Which component of a projectile's velocity stays constant when air resistance is ignored? A ball is launched at 20 m/s, 30° above the horizontal. What is its initial vertical component? Two balls leave a table edge together: one is dropped, one is thrown horizontally. Which statement is correct? At which launch angle is the range greatest on level ground with fixed speed? A boat heads straight across a river. What happens to the crossing time if the current becomes faster? A stone is thrown horizontally at 6.0 m/s and a second at 12 m/s from the same height. What is the ratio of their fall times? What is the shape of the path of a projectile launched at an angle, with no air resistance? A plane flies at 60 m/s airspeed due north in a 15 m/s west-to-east wind. Which description of its ground velocity is correct? Which equation gives the vertical position of a projectile launched upward from ground level?
Horizontal and vertical components of v at angle θ? — v cos θ and v sin θ Acceleration of a projectile at every point? — g = 9.81 m/s² downward Which velocity component is constant in flight? — The horizontal component Vertical velocity at the top of the path? — Zero Fall time from height h, starting vertically at rest? — t = √(2h ÷ g) Range on level ground formula? — R = v² sin 2θ ÷ g Which angle gives maximum range? — 45° Relative velocity rule? — Add velocities as vectors Crossing time of a river depends on? — Velocity component across the river Do the x and y motions affect each other? — No, they share only time Keep going with Lina
