This was used to calculate how steep the path of the bomb would be when dropped from high altitudes; at lower altitudes and airspeeds, the bomb did not reach terminal velocity and followed a more parabolic path.

This separation process was based on differing specific gravities of minerals in the slurry, which in Rittinger's structure, along with other solids and water, continuously moved down a slightly inclined plane in parabolic paths.

As for the parabolic path, it's just a complicated way of looking at the fact that the plane must be accelerating downward at a constant rate, and going in the transverse direction with zero acceleration-just like you.

Even chimpanzees and very small children with no knowledge of math, science and ballistics can toss a ball back and forth-with a precision that implies that at some level their brains and muscles understand that projectiles follow a parabolic path.

:: : : * If the speed of the light object is much more than the orbital speed at that distance, the light object will slingshot around the massive object in a parabolic path and then continue on it's way.

:I wouldn't think that electrons carry current, rather they carry charge and the flow of charge is the current . ( Mere semantics, I know . . . ) Electrons in a current typically go through a wire so I can't see how they would trace a parabolic path unless the wire is parabolic.
