True or false an object that is dropped will hit the ground before an object that is thrown horizontally from the same height?
False, provided the drop occurs no sooner than the throw, and the ground is flat .
Will the object that is dropped hit the ground before an object that is that it is thrown horizontally from the same height?
No. They both hit the ground at the same time, because the VERTICAL component of velocity in both cases is the same.
Is an object that is dropped will hit the ground before an object that is thrown horizontally from the same height?
No. They both hit the ground at the same time. This is because the VERTICAL component of velocity in both cases is the same.
What happen when an object thrown horizontally?
Your question is incomplete. It sounds like you are asking how the object falls. Aside from air resistance, the only force acting on it is the vertical component of gravity. Therefore, the object will fly a distance x = v (2d/g)1/2 where v is the horizontal velocity, d is the distance from the ground, and g is the acceleration of gravity.
If you drop an object it will accelerate downward at a rate of 9.8 meters per second squared if you instead throw it downwards its acceleration will be greater or less 9.8 meters per second?
Whether the object is dropped, thrown downwards, thrown upwards, or thrown horizontally, its downward acceleration is the same 9.8 meters per second2. If it's thrown downwards, however, its speed at any instant is greater than the speed at the same instant would be if it had only been dropped, since it has some speed before the acceleration begins.

What is the furthest distance an object has been thrown by a human vertically and horizontally?
Horizontally
What object exhibit two dimensional?
An object thrown upward at an angle An object that's thrown horizontally off a cliff and allowed to fall
What does gravity do to the path of an object that is thrown horiziontally?
It doesn't matter whether the object is thrown down, up, horizontally, or diagonally. Once it leaves the thrower's hand, it is accelerated downward by an amount equal to acceleration of gravity on the planet where this is all happening. On Earth, if you throw an object horizontally, it accelerates downward at the rate of 9.8 meters per second2 ... just as it would if you simply dropped it. Whether it's dropped or thrown horizontally, it hits the ground at the same time.
Is acceleration greater when the object is thrown vertically or horizontally?
Acceleration is dependent on the initial velocity of how fast the object is leaving the projectile. The vertical acceleration is greater when the object is falling than when the object reaches the peak in height. However, if the object is thrown horizontally and there is no parabola in its shape then there is not as great of an acceleration.
Does different speed of two objects effect the time it takes to reach the ground?
If thrown horizontal from same height the faster object will travel farther horizontally, but time to fall is the same. If thrown straight up, the faster object will take longer to fall
Why does a bullet shot horizontally hit the ground at the same time as one just dropped?
Because the horizontal and vertical motion of an object are separate. This means that a thrown object will accelerate with the same amount of acceleration as a dropped object (about 9.8 m/s2 acceleration due to gravity) causing them to hit the ground at the same time
A ball is thrown horizontally from a cliff and hits the ground 4 seconds later 40 meters from the base of the cliff?
The ball was thrown horizontally at 10 meters per sec, and the thrower's arm was 78.4 meters above the base of the cliff.
A ball is thrown horizontally from a cliff and hits the ground 4 seconds later 40 meters from the base of the cliff How fast was the ball thrown?
10 m/s
How can a ball be thrown that it reaches the longest distance across vertically horizontally angled?
if the bal is thrown by making 45 degree angles. with the ground..it will travel maximum distance...
