What is Gravity?
A: Gravity is the force that causes smaller bodies to accelerate towards the surface of a larger body.
B. Gravity is the force causes smaller bodies to accelerate away from the surface of a larger body.
C. Gravity is the force that causes larger bodies to accelerate towards the surface of a smaller body.
Gravity is the force that causes smaller bodies to accelerate towards the surface of a larger body.
What component of the initial velocity is responsible for the maximum height reached by a projectile?
Vertical Velocity
