Across
- 1. an object that is thrown or launched into the air with a particular initial velocity and follows a curved path under the action of gravity.
- 4. a symmetrical open plane curve formed by the intersection of a cone with a plane parallel to its side. The path of a projectile under the influence of gravity ideally follows a parabolic trajectory.
- 5. the rate at which an object changes its velocity. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.
Down
- 2. a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationships between the sides and angles of triangles and the calculations based on them.
- 3. the size or extent of something, usually measured in terms of length, area, or volume.
