Two objects will fall at the same rate whether thay are being dropped vertically or shot out.
As an object falls, the y axis increases but the x axis stays the same. This means that the acceleration for the x axis is zero and the acceleration for the y axis is -9.8. You also notice that the velocities are increasing by the same amount each leg.
Vertical:
Vf = Vi + a t
d= 1/2 g t2 + Vi t
Acceleration= -9.8

Ground to Ground Projectile Motion:
As an object goes up the y axis decreases. The acceleration in vertical direction is always -9.8 m/s/s. As the object falls down the y axis increases. The x axis stays the same throughout the entire motion. This means that the acceleration for the x axis is zero.
Horizontal Projectile Motion:
As an object falls, the y axis increases but the x axis stays the same. This means that the acceleration for the x axis is zero and the acceleration for the y axis is -9.8. You also notice that the velocities are increasing by the same amount each leg.
