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.
