Projectile

A projectile is an object that is propelled by the application of an external force and then moves freely under the influence of gravity and air resistance. Although any objects in motion through space are projectiles, they are commonly found in hunting and warfare, such as a fired bullet, a shot arrow, or a stone tossed from a sling.
