KCET · Physics · Motion In Two Dimensions
In the projectile motion of a particle on a level ground, which of the following remains constant with reference to time and position?
- A Average velocity between any two points on the path
- B Horizontal component of velocity
- C Angle between the instantaneous velocity with the horizontal
- D Vertical component of the velocity of the projectile
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Horizontal component of velocity
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In projectile motion, the horizontal component of velocity remains constant with respect to time and position. This is because there is no horizontal acceleration acting on the projectile (neglecting air resistance).
