Ignoring air resistance, the horizontal component of a projectile's acceleration (A) is zero. (B) remains a non-zero constant. (C) continuously increases. (D) continuously decreases.
6
If an object is launched at an initial angle of θ 0 with the horizontal, the analysis is similar except that the initial velocity has a vertical component. Motion in Two Dimensions

The range of a projectile is maximum (if there is no air resistance) for a launch angle of 45°. Motion in Two Dimensions
21
A projectile is fired with an initial speed of 65.2 m/s at an angle of 34.5º above the horizontal on a long flat firing range. Determine (a) the maximum height reached by the projectile. Problem (b) the total time in the air (c) the total horizontal distance covered (that is, the range).

You are trying to hit a friend with a water balloon. He is sitting in the window of his dorm room directly across the street. You aim straight at him and shoot. Just when you shoot, he falls out of the window! Does the water balloon hit him? a) yes, it hits b) maybe—it depends on the speed of the shot c) no, it misses d) the shot is impossible e) not really sure Assume that the shot does have enough speed to reach the dorm across the street. Your friend falls under the influence of gravity, just like the water balloon. Thus, they are both undergoing free fall in the y- direction. Since the slingshot was accurately aimed at the right height, the water balloon will fall exactly as your friend does, and it will hit him!! Question 3.10aShoot the Monkey I
