Why Does The Vertical Component Of The Velocity Vector Of A Projectile Changes With Time Whereas The Velocity Horizontal Component Does Not Change? [Solved]

Hola, iam Joseph Harris, Have an awesome day!

Why Does The Vertical Component Of The Velocity Vector Of A Projectile Changes With Time Whereas The Velocity Horizontal Component Does Not Change? [Solved]

The vertical component changes because vertical motion is influenced by the gravitational force (which acts in the vertical direction). The horizontal component of velocity doesn’t change because there is no component of gravitational force acting horizontally.
