A projectile is any object that is cast, fired, flung, heaved, hurled, pitched, tossed, or thrown. (This is an informal definition.) The path of a projectile is called its trajectory. Some examples of projectiles include …
a baseball that has been pitched, batted, or thrown
a bullet the instant it exits the barrel of a gun or rifle
a bus driven off an uncompleted bridge
a moving airplane in the air with its engines and wings disabled
a runner in mid stride (since they momentarily lose contact with the ground)
the space shuttle or any other spacecraft after main engine cut off (MECO)
What force controls the flight ?
What force is in play the whole way through the flight ?
What direction does this force act ?
H/W Draw a diagram of the flight path of an object, at 4 various angles !
