Anything thrown hard enough that physics stops asking your permission.
means An object hurled, launched, or propelled through the air, moving under the force given to it rather than its own power.
from From Latin proicere, "to throw forth" — pro- ("forward") plus iacere ("to throw"), the same iacere that hurled us "eject," "inject," and "trajectory." The word arrived through scientific Latin (projectilis) in the 17th century, when natural philosophers were busy working out exactly how cannonballs arc — so "projectile" was born already half-tangled in the mathematics of flying things.
