Projectile motion is the motion of an object thrown into free space that moves under the influence of gravitational acceleration only. For horizontal projectile motion, the horizontal component of velocity remains constant throughout the motion, while the vertical component changes due to gravity. The time of flight is determined by the vertical motion equation h = (1/2)gt², and the horizontal range is calculated using s = ux × t. For angular projectile motion, the initial velocity is resolved into horizontal (ux = u cosθ) and vertical (uy = u sinθ) components, with the time of flight given by T = (2u sinθ)/g, maximum height by H = (u² sin²θ)/(2g), and range by R = (u² sin(2θ))/g. The key principle is that horizontal and vertical motions are independent but share the same time parameter.
