Which velocity is the direct contributor to the time a projectile spends in the air?

Vertical

200

What two factors of HPM are always the same thing?

Accel due to gravity and initial vertical velocity

Which play is known for "Mrs. Lovett's Meat Pies?"

Edward Scissor Hands

Who is in second place on the all-time goals list for the NHL?

Alexander Ovechkin

300

Which velocity directly affects the displacement an object has from it's starting point?

Horizontal

300

Can horizontal projectile motion start from ground level? Explain why or why not

No

If it starts at the ground level, in order for the object to fall due to gravity it must have initial vertical velocity. This means it would not be Horizontal Projectile Motion.

500

Which component of projectile motion is considered to be the variable in the quadratic formula?

Time

at+ bt + c

500

Where is the acceleration of an object the highest during horizontal projectile motion?

It is constant, so it is always the same
