Does angle of catapult affect distance object travels?
By laws of physics, the angle at which something is launched into the air affects how far it will travel. Not taking into account air resistance, 45 degrees would be the ideal angle for maximum distance.
How does shape affect distance?
Yes it does if the object was a different shape it would move different it depends if it goes further or not as far depending on where you are doing it.
Does the angle of a catapult affect the distance of a ball?
Hello: * Yes, the angle of a catapult does affect the distance. And this applies to both changing the angle of the catapult and changing the angle of the terrain under the catapult. If you shoot the catapult at say 45 degrees, you have very good distance. If you shoot it at 30 degrees, while it may be further, it would be lower to the ground and perhaps not travel as far hitting trees and running into wind-shear. If you shoot at say 80 degrees, while the lob goes high up in the air, it won't travel very far. So your best bet, for maximum distance, is to take your catapult to the highest possible altitude, aim for 45 degrees, taking into account the wind direction and speed, and lob away. Don't hit anyone. :) Answer Actually, the maximum distance that can be achieved from a catapult is at an angle of 45 degrees. Every degree increase from 0 up to 45 approaches the maximum distance that something can be thrown. Every degree from 45 to 90 decreases the distance.
Does the mass of an arrow effect it's penetration power?
The mass of the arrow does not affect the kinetic enery of the projectile. It does however affect the velocity of the arrow. The heavier the arrow the slower it flies ( out of the same bow). As far as penertation goes, velocity is your friend. There is alot of material science that goes into play but generally the faster projectile wins in penetration tests.
Does the size of your head affect how far you can jump?
no your head size does not affect how far you jump. Whoever this is who said that is what Mr. Ayetiwa said your wrong.
Do fin sizes on a rocket affect how far it goes?
Yes they do they help it balance.I learned it at college for kids.
What does body length on a straw rocket affect?
it affects how far the rocket will fly
How does the angle of the solar panel affect how far the solar car goes?
The panel should be at a 90 degree angle to the sun at all times to achieve maximum efficiency.
How does the angle of a ramp affect the distance a toy car will travel?
the steeper the ramp, the farther the car goes. if your ramp is flatter, it won't go as far.
Does the material a rocket is made of affect the distance it travels?
Yes. A heavy rocket will not travel as far as a light rocket if both carry the same fuel load.
Ways to test if the size of a ball has a effect on how far it goes?
Yes , the affect of the ball does matter of how far it goes.
Does the width of a paper airplane affect how far it goes?
Yes
Does the wings of a paper airplane affect how far it goes?
yes
Does the amount of air in a balloon rocket affect how far it flies?
yes,because if you blow into it then let it go fly offset, it will fly really far
What determines how far a 22 bullet goes?
most 22LR will travel up to 1 1/2 miles. there are many factors that will affect this distance including; angle at discharge, powder load, cleanliness of the firearm, elevation and shape of projectile.
Does the length of the bat affect how far a baseball will travel?
No the length of the bat doesn't affect how far the ball goes, its all in your hips and the velocity of the ball.
Does angle of catapult affect distance object travels?
By laws of physics, the angle at which something is launched into the air affects how far it will travel. Not taking into account air resistance, 45 degrees would be the ideal angle for maximum distance.
