  • Q3
    How did Aristotle explain projectile motion?
    Objects are propelled by external forces and then fall in a curved path
    Objects are propelled by an inherent force and then continue moving horizontally
    Objects move in a straight line until acted upon by a force
    Objects are propelled by an inherent force and then fall straight down
