How does the drop height of an object affect the size of the crater it forms?
the higher something is the more potential energy it has. when you drop it that turns into kinetic energy & u gain more momentum. that creates a bigger impact on what the crater hits.
Why are some craters on the moon bigger than others?
It all depends on the amount of kinetic energy the crater has when it hits the moon. The larger the height, and the more kinetic energy the crater has when it hits the moon the larger the diameter of the crater and the more deeper it is. Hope this helps!
Which is the height of a geostationary satellite from the surface is approximately?
15000km
How do the moons stay in orbit around Jupiter?
Things, moons or other objects, stay in orbit aournd whatever they orbit becasue they are moving at just the right speed. As the object falls X distance down from an orbital height of Z, it also moves Y distance horizontally. That Y distance is just enough so that at the end it is at Z distance above the surface because the surface below is round and movement puts it over a part that is curved "down." This is an awkward description of free fall. The object is always falling down but its sideways motion keeps it at the same height above the planet.
What is surface temperature?
Surface temperature is the temperature on the outside of the object. For example the surface temperature of the Earth is the Ground temperature and the surface temperature of an orange is the rind not the pips.
How does height affect distance?
Height does not affect distance.
How is an arctangent a crater creator?
In a crater, the slope of the side of the crater is simply the arc-tangent of the height difference divided by the horizontal distance.
Does height affect distance traveled?
height effects distance traveld
Name 2 factors the affect the distance taken for a toy car to stop after rolling down a ramp?
One factor is the height of the ramp. The higher the height of the ramp the further the car travels. Another factor is the surface of the ramp. With a rough surface on the ramp e.g sand paper the car travels a short distance. With a lubricated surface on the ramp e.g Vaseline the car will travel a very long distance.
How does distance affect the height of something with gpe?
The horizontal distance makes no significant difference.
What is the height of barringer crater's rim relative to the crater floor?
150 meters
What are two main factors that affect where groundwater becomes surface water?
The height of the water table and the height of the ground surface. Got it from past TAKS tests.
Why does height affect your accuracy when you throw a basketball?
Height does not really affect the accuracy of your basketball throwing. However, tall people tend to underestimate the distance to the net and small people tend to overestimate the distance to the net.
How does the drop height of an object affect the size of the crater it forms?

How does height affect vital capacity?
due to surface area. if you are taller your lungs will have a greater surface area which will raise the volume.
Does height affect the length of your jump?
No it doesn't because the taller you are the shorter the distance you jump when you get measured
Is it true or false that the height of an object above sea level is its relief?
This height is called the altitude. It is the amount of distance between the object and the surface of water.
