Question

Which of the following statements are true of the vertical motion of projectiles? True or False?

A. The vertical component of a projectile's velocity is constant.

B. The vertical component of a projectile's velocity changes at a constant rate.

C. The magnitude of the vertical velocity of a projectile changes by 9.8 m/s each

second.

D. The vertical velocity of a projectile is 0 m/s at the peak of its trajectory.

E. The final vertical velocity of a projectile is always equal to the initial vertical

velocity.

F. The vertical acceleration of a projectile is 0 m/s2 when it is at the peak of its

trajectory.

G. The peak height to which a projectile rises above the launch location is dependent

upon the initial vertical velocity.

H. As a projectile rises towards the peak of its trajectory, the vertical velocity will

decrease; as it falls from the peak of its trajectory, its vertical velocity will increase.

Explanation / Answer

A) false

B) True

C) True

D) True

E) True (magnitudes are same)

F) Flase

G) True

H) True (magnitude increases)
