A projectile is launched at some angle to the horizontal by some initial speed vi, and air resistance is negligible.

1) Is the projectile a freely falling body?

2) What is its acceleration in the horizontal direction?

3) What is its acceleration in the vertical direction? (Let up be the positive direction.)
