Which of the following is not true about projectile motion, when height of release and landing is same?

Projectile motion is the motion of an object that is thrown, launched or dropped and moves along a curved path under the influence of gravity.

Key Points

• The range of a projectile is determined by several factors, including the initial velocity, angle of release, and height of release.
• The force of gravity, which acts in a downward direction, affects the trajectory of the projectile, but it does not have a direct effect on the range.
• The range of a projectile is dependent on the horizontal and vertical components of its motion, and is given by the equation R = (V0^2/g)sin(2θ), where R is the range, V0 is the initial velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and θ is the angle of release.
• Therefore, the range of a projectile is not directly proportional to the force of gravity.

Thus, the statement "Range of projectile is directly proportional to the force of gravity" is not true about projectile motion, when height of release and landing is the same.
