Respuesta :
the horizontal component of a projectile acceleration is zero
Answer:
The horizontal component of a projectile's acceleration is zero
Explanation:
When calculating all the different components of a projectile (acceleration, initial velocity, final velocity, etc.), you need to break it up into its X and Y directions.
During free fall, the only force acting on the projectile is gravity, and since gravity acts down (in the Y direction), there is no force acting in the X direction. Hence, the acceleration in the X direction is zero.
