15
Q

the rate of distance traveled by a moving object over time

A

speed

16
Q

the rate of displacement of a moving object over time

A

velocity

16
Q

is a vector quantity which means it has both magnitude and direction. It denotes the rate at which the object is moving or changing position.

A

VELOCITY

17
Q

is defined as the change in the velocity of an object with respect to time

A

Acceleration

18
Q

can be defined as a scenario when an object is moving only under the effect of the Earth’s gravitational pull.

A

Freefall

19
Q

As external force is exerted on the object, the motion will be constantly accelerated. This is known as ——-

A

freefall acceleration.

20
Q

In a —–, there are two simultaneous independent rectilinear motions:

A

Projectile Motion

21
Q

uniform velocity, responsible for the horizontal (forward) motion of the particle

A

Projectile motion - Along the x-axis:

22
Q

uniform acceleration, responsible for the vertical (downwards) motion of the particle.

A

Projectile motion - Along the y-axis:

23
Q

the pathway followed by an object in projectile motion is

A

trajectory

24
Q

The horizontal distance traveled in projectile motion is known as the —-.

A

range

25
Q

the highest point reached is called the —– in projectile motion.

A

maximum height

26
Q

In projectile motion, Vertical velocity remains constant. Horizontal velocity changes continuously.

true or false

A

false

Horizontal velocity remains constant.Vertical velocity changes continuously.

27
Q

true or false

in projectile motion, horizontal speed decreases as the object ascends and increases as it descends

A

FALSE

Vertical speed decreases as the object ascends and increases as it descends.

28
Q

Projectile motion can occur at different angles.

true or false

A

true
