{\displaystyle x} of its source. A familiar example of a trajectory is the path of a projectile, such as a thrown ball or rock. In a significantly simplified...

path (a trajectory) under the action of gravity only. In the particular case of projectile motion on Earth, most calculations assume the effects of air...

exterior ballistics is the part of ballistics that deals with the behavior of a projectile in flight. The projectile may be powered or un-powered, guided...

A shell, in a military context, is a projectile whose payload contains an explosive, incendiary, or other chemical filling. Originally it was called a...

generally consist of one or more coils arranged along a barrel, so the path of the accelerating projectile lies along the central axis of the coils. The...

and no air resistance. The horizontal ranges of a projectile are equal for two complementary angles of projection with the same velocity. The following...

Internet latency in online multiplayer gaming. It is hard to change the path of a projectile once it leaves the gun with things such as wind and gravity. Since...

perpendicular distance between the path of a projectile and the center of a potential field U(r) created by an object that the projectile is approaching (see diagram)...

Path of Exile is a free-to-play action role-playing video game developed and published by Grinding Gear Games. Following an open beta phase, the game...

to launch high-velocity projectiles. The projectile normally does not contain explosives, instead relying on the projectile's high kinetic energy to inflict...

A cartridge, also known as a round, is a type of pre-assembled firearm ammunition packaging a projectile (bullet, shot, or slug), a propellant substance...

predecessor and can destroy special walls blocking the player's path. Another projectile temporarily covers sharp vertical surfaces allowing Firebrand to...

The Unrotated Projectile (UP) was a British anti-aircraft and ground-bombardment rocket of the Second World War. A 7-inch version was developed for the...

data. Such a projectile may be fired from a precision-guided firearm capable of programming its behavior. It is a miniaturized type of precision-guided...

measured in the horizontal plane, the angle of attack of the projectile. The protection of an area, instead of just a single point, is indicated by the average...

expansion of high-pressure gas(es) is used to propel a projectile out of the front end (muzzle) at a high velocity. The hollow interior of the barrel...

the projectile path crosses the horizontal sighting plane twice. The point closest to the gun occurs while the bullet is climbing through the line of sight...
