Which object, a feather or a hammer, hits the ground first when dropped from the same height?
Both the feather and the hammer will hit the ground at the same time when dropped from the same height in a vacuum. This is due to the principle of gravity, which accelerates all objects at the same rate regardless of their mass.
If two object of different density are dropped simultaneously which one will hit the ground first?
as done in Galileo's experiment when he dropped a large rock and a feather from a tall tower both hit the ground at the same moment when dropped from the same height.
Would feather and a nail reach the ground at the same time?
No, a feather and a nail would not reach the ground at the same time if dropped at the same height in a vacuum. This is because the feather experiences more air resistance, slowing its fall compared to the nail which falls faster due to its higher mass.
What is the height from ground to the basketball hoop?
10 feet
Will a baseball or basketball reach the ground first?
If dropped from the same height (a few meters), they would appear to hit the ground at the same time, according to the experiments of Galileo. However, this neglects air resistance on the basketball, which will slow it down more and cause it to hit the ground later (very slightly later). The baseball, which has a smaller area and therefore less air resistance, will hit the ground first.
If there were no air resistance how did the speeds of a feather and a penny compare?
If there was no air resistance and a feather and a penny were dropped from the same height they would both pick up speed by the same amount and they would hit the ground at the same speed and at the same time.
How does gravity affect the bounce of a basketball?
Gravity affects the bounce of a basketball because if there is gravity, the basketball will come back down after it bounces. But if there is no gravity, the basketball will bounce and travel indefinitely upwards and never come back down until a gravitational force pulls the basketball towards it.
What is the professional level basketball rim height?
10 feet from the ground.
How high will a basketball bounce when dropped from above your head if it has 5 pounds of pressure?
It depends on your height.
When You Drop An Object From A Certain Height It Takes Time T To Reach The Ground With No Air Resistance. If You Dropped It From Three Times That Height How Long Would It Take To Reach The Ground?
When an object is dropped from a certain height, the time it takes to reach the ground is independent of the height (assuming no air resistance). Therefore, whether you drop the object from three times the initial height or the original height, it will still take the same time (T) to reach the ground.
Which has more kinetic energy a ball dropped from a height of 2m or a same ball dropped at 4m which has more kinetic energy just before it hits the ground?
The ball dropped from 4m height has more kinetic energy just before it hits the ground because it has a higher velocity due to falling from a greater height. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to both mass and the square of velocity, so the ball dropped from 4m height will have more kinetic energy than the one dropped from 2m height.
Height of an average basketball hoop?
The official height of an NBA basketball hoop is 10 feet from the floor to the rim.
