What is Projectile Motion ?

Projectile motion involves the curved path taken by an object launched into the air. It combines horizontal and vertical motions. The horizontal motion remains constant, while the vertical motion is influenced by gravity. The resulting trajectory is parabolic. The independence of horizontal and vertical motions allows for separate analysis. Projectile motion has applications in fields like ballistics and sports.
