A parabolic path is the curved trajectory followed by an object when its motion is influenced by both gravity and a constant horizontal velocity.
The shape of a parabolic path is affected by the initial velocity, the angle of launch, and the force of gravity.
The graph of a particle in parabolic path is typically represented by a parabola, with the x-axis representing time and the y-axis representing the position of the particle.
The slope of the graph represents the velocity of the particle at a given point in time. The steeper the slope, the higher the velocity.
The maximum height of the particle can be determined by finding the highest point on the parabolic curve. The range can be calculated by finding the x-intercepts of the parabola, which represent the horizontal distance traveled by the particle.
