How Does Velocity Affect Projectile Motion? The vertical velocity of a projectile changes by 9.8 m/s each second, The horizontal motion of a projectile is independent of its vertical motion. How does initial velocity affect projectile motion? (a) The greater the initial speed v0, the greater the range for a given initial angle. (b) The
What Are The Components Of Trajectory? The trajectory of a projectile depends on motion in two dimensions. The x component is the horizontal motion of the projectile, and the y component is the vertical motion of the projectile. The units to express the horizontal and vertical distances are meters (m). What are the components needed
What Is The Most Important Factor In Projectile Motion? There are 3 factors that are most important in projectile motion: The projection angle. The magnitude of projectile velocity. The height of the projection. What are the most important factors to consider in projection for horizontal distance? Figure 1: Trajectory Plot for Angled-Launched Projectiles During its
What Factors Affect The Performance Of A Projectile After Leaving The Barrel? Bullet shape and density of lead versus alternative metals affect the performance of a projectile after it leaves the barrel. Exterior ballistics is relevant to the discussion of ammunition because lead ammunition performs differently in flight than non-lead alternatives. What happens to a
