Projectile motion is a two dimensional motion with constant acceleration. Is this statement true or false?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
True. Projectile motion takes place in a plane. So, it is two dimensional. For small
heights, its acceleration is constant (=acceleration due to gravity). Therefore, it is a two
dimensional motion with constant acceleration.
