trajectory

The path of a projectile or other moving body through space.

A chosen or taken course.

A curve that cuts all of a given family of curves or surfaces at the same angle.

The path described by a body moving under the action of given forces; specifically, the curve described by a projectile in its flight through the air. Compare range, 4.

In geometry, a curve which cuts all the curves or surfaces of a given system at a constant angle. When the constant angle is a right angle, the trajectory is called an orthogonal trajectory.
