What type of path does a projectile follow in the absence of air resistance?

A projectile follows a curved path known as a parabola in the absence of air resistance. This path is due to the combination of the projectile's initial velocity and the acceleration due to gravity acting on it.


What occurs when there is no air resistance?

-- "free fall" -- absence of terminal velocity


What are the conditions required to swing continuously in air?

absence of friction...no air resistance


What type of path does a moving object follow in the absence of a force?

The path of a body not acted on by a force is a path without acceleration, a straight line. A straight line can be a flat line zero velocity or a slant line constant velocity. It cannot be a curved line, acceleration, changing velocity.


Which term describes motion without air resistance to gravity?

Projectile motion describes the motion of an object in the absence of air resistance and under the influence of gravity. This type of motion involves the object traveling in a curved path due to the combined effects of its initial velocity and gravitational force.


The tendency of a moving object to stay in motion?

inertia. have you ever been driving straight and make a turn to the right, and your body leans left? inertia wants you to keep going straight, in this case to the left. or have you been going straight on a train and when the train stops you fall foward, its intertia that wants you to keep going straight.


Why do a rabbit and tiger both fall at the same rate in absence of air?

A rabbit and a tiger fall at the same rate in the absence of air because there is no air resistance affecting their falling bodies.


What only occurs when there is no air resistance?

In the absence of air resistance, an object in free fall will continue to accelerate at a constant rate (9.8 m/s^2), as there is no force acting to oppose its motion. This phenomenon is known as "free fall acceleration".


Traveling by land in Greece was difficult why?

Mountains, rivers, seas, and walking in the absence of motor vehicles. Sea travel was best.


What causes can to move in straight-line path?

Inertia - or the absence of any force making it change direction.


What are the technologies of law of inerta?

The resistance of an imposing object to change it's movement. Intrinsic to mass,it is present in the absence of gravity.


How does ball size affect the time it takes the ball to fall?

The size of a ball does not directly affect the time it takes to fall in the absence of air resistance. In a vacuum, all objects would fall at the same rate regardless of size. This is known as the principle of acceleration due to gravity.
