Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 [down]. Down means toward the centre of the earth. All objects experience this same acceleration in free fall on Earth. In practice…..

Motion in one direction is independent of motion in a perpendicular direction For an object moving under Earth’s gravity, vertical motion and horizontal motion are independent When solving a projectile motion problem, apply the kinematics equations to each direction separately.
In the x-direction (horizontal) In the y-direction (vertical)
Ex 1: A football is kicked from the ground with an initial velocity of 25 m/s at an angle of 45- degrees with the horizontal. It lands on the ground some distance away. Determine the time of flight, the horizontal distance, and the peak height of the football. (time of flight = 3.61s, horizontal displacement =63.7m, height = 15.9m)
