2 balls dropped horizontally and vertically.Which ball strikes ground first why?

Please describe how you drop something 'horizontally'


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 .


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.


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.


Will a bullet travel the same distance straight up that it would horizontally?

No. The horizontal distance depends on how close the the ground the gun is. From the firing position, a bullet dropped to the ground will strike the ground in the same time as a bullet shot horizontally forward.


A bullet is fired horizontally out of a gun at the same time another is dropped from the end of the barrelthe one to hit the ground first is?

Both hit at the same time.


Why an arrow shot horizontally and an arrow dropped straight down from the same height will hit the ground at the same time?

yes because they have the same gravitational potential


A rock is dropped at the same instant that a ball in the same elevation is thrown horizontally which will have the greater speed when it reaches ground level?

The rock will have a greater speed when it reaches the ground level compared to the ball thrown horizontally because the rock will be accelerated by gravity as it falls vertically, while the ball thrown horizontally will only have its initial horizontal velocity.


Is it true an object that will hit the ground before an object that is thrown horizontally?

yes, i just test right now


Does horizontal speed affect gravity?

No. That's why a bullet shot horizontally from a gun and a bullet dropped from the muzzle of the gun at the same time both hit the ground at the same time.


If a rock is dropped and a ball is thrown horizontally at the same initial elevation Which will have the greater speed when it reaches ground level?

The thrown ball will have a greater speed when it reaches ground level because it has a horizontal component of velocity in addition to the vertical component. The rock only has a vertical component of velocity due to gravity.


A dart is fired horizontally from a dart gun and another dart is dropped simultaneously from the same height If air resistance can be neglected which dart hits the ground first?

Both darts will hit the ground at the same time, assuming air resistance is neglected. This is because the vertical component of motion (due to gravity) is the same for both darts, regardless of their horizontal velocities.
