To find

Which of the following choices is true about the components of the velocity vector of a projectile as it is moving upward?

Step-by-step explanation

While in projectile the vertical velocity receives a resistance by the gravity while there is no force acting on the horizontal direction

So the horizontal velocity remains constant and the vertical velocity decreases as it is moving upward.

Conclusion

The correct option is

Vx remains constant, Vy decreases​
