For general projectile motion with no air resistance, the vertical component of a projectile's acceleration For general projectile motion with no air resistance, the vertical component of a projectile's acceleration remains a non-zero constant. continuously decreases. first decreases and then increases. is always zero. continuously increases.

Rmains constant

Explanation:

The equation of the trajectory of a projectile motion is presented as follows;

The vertical componet of the prjectile motion is

y = (u·sinθ)·t - g·t²/2

Where;

θ = The angle with which the projectile is launched

x = The horizontal distance

u = The initial velocity of the projectile

g = The acceleration due to gravity = Constant

t = The time of motion

The acceleration acting on the projectile is the 'g' which is the constant acceleration due to gravity

Therefore, for general projectile motion with no air resistance, the vertical component of the projectile acceleration remains constant
