PROJECTILE

Projectile
A projectile is any object that once projected or dropped continues in motion by its own inertia and is influenced only by the downward force of gravity such as
i. an object dropped from rest
ii. an object that is thrown vertically upward
iii. an object which is thrown upward at an angle to the horizontal.


Projectile would show a single force acting downwards and labeled force of gravity (or simply Fgrav).
