Which of the following statements is NOT true about projectile motion, assuming the height of release and landing is the same?
- 1The range will be maximum if a shot putter throws the shot at an angle slightly less than 45° due to release height.
- 2The range of the projectile is directly proportional to the acceleration due to gravity.✓
- 3The range of the projectile will be the same if projected at 60° and 30°, provided the initial velocity is constant.
- 4The horizontal motion of a projectile is independent of its vertical motion.
Correct answer
The range of the projectile is directly proportional to the acceleration due to gravity.
