1.
Answer: True
Explanation: A projectile is launched at certain angle with the horizontal. Hence, its equation of motion can be described using vertical and horizontal components. Therefore, the statement is true.
2.
Answer: False
Explanation:
The shape of the trajectory of a projectile is parabola. Hence, the given statement is false.
3.
Answer: A) constant
Explanation: During the course of trajectory, the horizontal component of the velocity is constant. There is no external force acting in the horizontal direction. In the vertical direction, Â acceleration due to gravity acts which increases the vertical component of velocity. Hence, the correct option is A.
