*medal*Acceleration as vectors in Projectile motion: In which instances are the acceleration vectors negative, positive, or 0?-a personal question. please be detailed!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for x component and y component of acceleration vector....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@wio help please??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In projectile motion, the horizontal component always has 0 acceleration.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The vertical component always had downward acceleration

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in other words, in projectile motion, the horizontal component (velocity) is constant?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and direction of projectile launched will not affect either of the components of the acceleration vectors?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, because a projectile is assumed to be only under the force of gravity.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1380939075722:dw| so x component of acceleration is 0, and y component of acceleration is negative in this diagram as well then?
