The ball would continue moving in the same direction and roughly the same speed as the car before hitting the ground (ignoring air resistance). Think of what happens when a car stops short and you go flying forward into the seat in front of you. That's what's happening to the ball; it's momentum keeps it from falling straight down. Just add gravity to pull the ball towards the ground.
The contact force will keep the ball moving but as the ball goes farther the ball slows down that's were the non contact force comes in it makes the ball not in contact
A moving ball has kinetic energy, which is energy associated with its motion.
The ball will follow a parabolic path due to its horizontal motion with the train and vertical motion due to gravity. It will fall straight down relative to the train, hitting the ground directly below the point where it was released.
The tennis ball
If the ball were simply dropped, the person dropping the ball and a stationary observer should see the same thing.
A bouncing ball undergoes a combination of translational and rotational motion. Translational motion refers to the ball moving from one location to another, while rotational motion involves the spinning or rotation of the ball as it bounces. These two types of motion work together to create the overall bouncing motion of the ball.
Still accelerating til it hits earth. ====================================== The height from which she dropped the ball is irrelevant. In any case, the ball was most likely moving at the greatest speed just as it hit the ground. The answer to the question is: zero.
In the vacuum of frictionless space, no force is needed to keep the ball moving. According to Newton's First Law of Motion, an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force. Therefore, once the ball is launched into frictionless space, it will continue moving indefinitely.
A bowling ball and a soccer ball, dropped from the same height will hit the ground at exactly the same time.
Since a ball is a sphere the motion it makes is rolling. The rolling happens on the ground and in the air.
A ball going down a hill is energy in motion. You walking is also energy in motion. A car moving is another example of energy in motion.
By the displaced force of motion you put on it from your moving leg hitting it.
