Vertical motion is the description of objects moving through free fall and tossing (gravitational), while horizontal motion is the description of objects moving in horizontal axis (rectilinear). Explain in detail the independence of horizontal and vertical motion as components of projectile motion, both in concept and in application.

Give an example of a trajectory in two or three dimensions caused by independent perpendicular motions.
Ash, being a cruel person that he was, threw a Pokeball to catch another clueless and innocent supernatural animal to be used in a derby-like tournament to death. (huhuhu) He launched it at 20m/s and a launch angle of 40 degrees from the horizontal. Determine the equation of the trajectory taken by the Pokeball. Assume that the Pokeball originated from the ground.
Use a graphing utility to obtain the path of a projectile launched from the ground (h = 0) at the specified values of θ = 35°, v0 = 300 feet per second. In the exercise, use the graph to determine the maximum height and the time at which the projectile reaches its maximum height. Also use the graph to determine the range of the projectile and the time it hits the ground. Round all answers to the nearest tenth.
You can use any coordinate system you like in order to solve a projectile motion problem. To demonstrate the truth of this statement, consider a ball thrown off the top of a building with a velocity v at an angle ? with respect to the horizontal. Let the building be 54.0 m tall, the initial horizontal velocity be 8.60 m/s, and the initial vertical velocity be 12.5 m/s. Choose your coordinates such that the positive y-axis is upward, and the x-axis is to the right, and the origin is at the point where the ball is released. (a) With these choices, find the ball's maximum height above the ground and the time it takes to reach the maximum height. maximum height above ground m time to reach maximum height s (b) Repeat your calculations choosing the origin at the base of the building. maximum height above ground m time to reach maximum height s

During a football game thurgood kicker attempts a pat. If the ball is kicked with a velocity of 28m/s at an angle of 38 degrees above the horizontal, how long is the ball in the air? How far does the ball travel horizontally?
A helicopter is flying horizontally with a speed of 67.3 m/s over a hill that slopes upward with a 5% grade (that is, the "rise" is 5% of the "run"). The helicopter's velocity is horizontal with a magnitude of 67.3 m/s and can be resolved into components parallel and perpendicular to the hill. Calculate the magnitude of the perpendicular component.
Sketch the vectors representing the projectile's horizontal and vertical accelerations.
Jonah is reading a novel that describes an athlete participating in an archery competition. The athlete is 186 cm tall and hits an amazing shot where they fire the arrow completely horizontally and it lands 51 m away from them. 1) neglecting air resistance and drag, what must the initial speed of the arrow be? 2) if the arrow was instead fired at an angle of 45°, how far would it have travelled if it was launched at 187m/s?
