In dealing with motion of projectile in air, we ignore effect of air resistance on motion. This gives trajectory as a parabola as you have studied. What would the trajectory look like if air resistance is included? Sketch such a trajectory and explain why you have drawn it that way.

Explanation – due to air resistance particle energy as well as horizontal component of velocity keep on decreasing making the fall steeper then rise. When we are neglecting air resistance path is parabola when we consider air resistance then path is asymmetric parabola.
