What else can I help you with?
Why would a ping pong ball go farther with holes in it then with no holes?
The holes reduce the air resistance acting on the ball by allowing air to flow through them. This decreases the drag force on the ball, enabling it to travel farther than a ball without holes.
Does the ball have more air resistance when its going faster or slower?
The ball experiences greater air resistance when it is going faster due to increased drag force. This is because at higher speeds, there is more air flowing past the ball, leading to a larger resistance force acting in the opposite direction of its motion.
What causes a flower to fall slower to the ground than a golf ball?
Air resistance. (friction).
What ball will fall to the ground faster basketball or soccer ball?
weight doesnt matter, the bigger one, which has the higher resistance will fall a tiny bit slower
Will a lacrosse ball bounce differently if it is frozen?
the ball will bounce less, because the molecules are moving slower which causes the ball to move slower and bounce slower
Does wind make balls hit the ground faster or slower?
Yes, it slows the ball down, it is called air resistance.
Why does a feather having a mass of 9 grams fall from a table to the floor slower than a 9 gram ping pong ball falling the same distance?
this is because of air resistance which increases with surface area of feather. however if there is no air resistance (only vacuum) both feather and ball will fall together.
Which ball drops to the ground faster?
They all drop at the same rate. Only objects that are fuzzy in some way drop slower because air resistance slows them a little. If there were no air, a feather and a cannon ball would drop at the exact same rate.
Why does a sheet of paper fall slower than one that is crumpled into a ball?
A crumpled paper ball has a smaller surface area compared to a flat sheet of paper, which increases air resistance and slows down its fall. The crumpled ball also has more internal air resistance, which further hinders its fall speed.
What travels farther a ping pong ball or a plastic ball with holes that is the same size?
ping pong ball the holes in a ball with holes(whiffle ball) slow it down.
Why are there 3 hole in a bowling ball?
They don't HAVE to have three holes - people used to drill two holes and palm the ball, but it's easier to control the ball with three holes.
Which ball will have a greater air resistance when the ball are dropped?
A larger ball will experience greater air resistance when dropped because it has a greater surface area interacting with the air. Air resistance is proportional to the surface area of an object, so the larger ball will slow down faster than a smaller ball when dropped.
