Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An airplane flying at a constant altitude is not moving like a projectile because it is constantly being propelled forward by its engines and is not being acted upon by gravity in the same way as the other objects listed. The other options are all subject to gravity and are launched into the air with a particular trajectory, making them move like projectiles.
