Projectile motion is an item or particle that is projected near the Earth's surface and travels along a curved route. The given statement is false.
What is a projectile motion?
An item or particle that is projected near the Earth's surface and travels along a curved route under the influence of gravity solely is said to be in projectile motion. Galileo demonstrated that this curved route is a parabola, although it might also be a line in a particular situation when it is hurled directly upwards.
As we can see in the image below, during a projectile motion the components of the acceleration are horizontal and vertical components. Therefore, the statement "For a horizontally-launched projectile, the vertical component of acceleration is zero while the horizontal component of acceleration is constant and non-zero" is false.
