Projectile motion is a motion where an object moves in a bilaterally symmetrical path
Projectile motion is a form of motion experienced by an object or particle that is projected near Earth's surface and moves along a curved path under the action of gravity only.
If an object is thrown up by making a certain angle with respect to ground ( let say theta) up in the sky , it will reach a maximum height after which it follows a symmetrical path as it comes down due to the action of gravity . The path followed from the beginning till end will be a parabolic in this case .
It is a motion where an object moves in a bilaterally symmetrical path .
Projectile motion only occurs when there is only one force applied at the beginning of the trajectory, after been released object comes in the action of gravity .
General form of equation of trajectory of Projectile motion can be written as :
y = x tan(theta ) - g(x^2)/(2(u^2)cos^2(theta))
where y = horizontal component
x = vertical component
g = gravity
u = initial velocity
theta = angle of inclination of the initial velocity from horizontal axis
