Solution

A projectile is any object that is cast, fired, flung, heaved, hurled,pitched, tossed, or thrown.
you throw the ball straight upward, or you kick a ball and give it a speed at an angle to the horizontal or you just drop things and make them free fall; all these are examples of projectile motion. In projectile motion, gravity is the only force acting on the object.
