<h2>Right answer: It follows a curved path
</h2>
The movement of a projectile is a movement in two dimensions (forming a curved path: a parabola shape) with <u>constant acceleration.
</u>
<u>
</u>
A projectile is any body or object that is thrown or projected by means of some force and continues in motion by its own inertia. This means the only force that acts on it while in motion is <u>the acceleration of gravity</u> (in this case we are on Earth, so the gravity value is
).
Where gravity influences the <u>vertical movement</u> of the projectile, while <u>the horizontal movement</u> of the projectile is the result of the tendency of any object to remain in motion at a constant speed (according to Newton's 1st law of motion sometimes called Law of Inertia).
The other options are <u>incorrect</u> because are <u>false</u>:
-The forward motion negates air resistance: There is always at least a small percent of air resistance, as long as that movement is done on Earth.
-It has variable acceleration: In projectile motion acceleration is constant (gravity acceleration)
.
-It is unaffected by gravity: The only force that acts on the projectile is due gravity.
The work done by

I assume the path itself is a line segment, which can be parameterized by

That's false. No medium = no sound.
Work done is by the change in the potential energy of the system. The work done by gravity is 924.63 J.
<h3>
What is the Kinetic Energy?</h3>
- Potential energy in physics is the energy that an item retains as a result of its position in relation to other objects, internal tensions, electric charge, or other elements.
- The gravitational potential energy of an object, which is based on its mass and distance from another object's center of mass, the elastic potential energy of an extended spring, and the electric potential energy of an electric charge in an electric field are examples of common types of potential energy. The joule, denoted by the letter J, is the energy unit in the International System of Units (SI).
Solution:
mass = 5.10 kg
height = 18.5 mm
We know that work done by the gravity on the watermelon is the change in the potential energy of the watermelon, therefore,
Work done due to gravity = change in the potential energy of the system
W = 
W = mg (h₀ - h₁)
W = 5.10 × 9.8 × 18.5
W = 924.63 J
