A projectile does not have a horizontal velocity.
A projectile with a rightward component of
motion will have a rightward component of
acceleration.
The horizontal velocity of a projectile changes
by 9.8 m/s each second.
A projectile with a horizontal component of
motion will have a constant horizontal velocity.
The horizontal velocity of a projectile is 0 m/s at
the peak of its trajectory.
The horizontal velocity of a projectile is
unaffected by the vertical velocity; these two
components of motion are independent of each
other.
The horizontal displacement of a projectile is
dependent upon the time of flight and the initial
horizontal velocity.
The final horizontal velocity of a projectile is
always equal to the initial horizontal velocity.
As a projectile rises towards the peak of its
trajectory, the horizontal velocity will decrease;
as it falls from the peak of its trajectory, its
horizontal velocity will decrease.
Consider a projectile launched from ground
level at a fixed launch speed and a variable
angle and landing at ground level. The
horizontal displacement (i.e., the range) of the
projectile will always increase as the angle of
launch is increased from 0 degrees to 90
degrees.
