3. A projectile is an object launched into space under the influence of gravity only.
4. A football is kicked at an angle of θ with respect to the horizontal. The acceleration is -9.8 m/s2 at all times.
5. At the highest point of the trajectory, the ball’s velocity is perpendicular to its acceleration.
6. A projectile fired horizontally will strike the ground in the same time as one dropped vertically from the same position if we neglect the effects of air resistance.
7. The range of a projectile is affected by its initial speed only.
