The path followed by a projectile is called its:
The path followed by a projectile is called its:
- A. trajectory
- B. range
- C. amplitude
- D. none of these
Step-by-step solution
In projectile motion, the path traced by the projectile is known as its trajectory. The term 'range' refers to the horizontal distance covered, while 'amplitude' is not a term used in projectile motion (it is used in oscillations). Therefore, the correct answer is trajectory.
