Answer:

gravity and air resistance

Explanation:

As the ball is moving in projectile motion it has to overcome the Earth’s force of gravity which is acting on the ball and pulling it downwards. Also the ball has to overcome the resistance offered by the air particles which tends to pull the ball in the backward direction opposing its forward motion.

Projectile is like a cannon shooting a ball so it will be in "free fall"

While in free fall you are subject to gravity pulling the ball down.

Also since it's flying through the air there is air resistance.

So GRAVITY AND AIR RESISTANCE

Explanation:

Element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.It can not be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.Example: Silicon (Si)

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: ethane $(C_2H_6)$ , propanone $(CH_3COCH_3)$ and water $(H_2O)$
