Best Answer

The horizontal velocity of the projectile (and the air resistance if known) will determine the horizontal distance traveled and the time required.

Why does density affect distance?

less density means you will not be able to give the ball momentum, but to little causes the object to fall quickly


How are objects able to gain energy as well as use it?

An object gains energy when it is either heated or pushed. If pushed vertically, it gains gravitational potential energy. If pushed horizontally, it gains kinetic energy.


How can you determine charge for an unknown material?

One can determine the charge for an unknown material by using negligible friction. One will then be able to compare reactions between different charges that are brought near the unknown material.


What travels about a million times faster that sound and air?

Do you mean 'than' instead of 'that' ? Well if you do, I think the answer is LIGHT. Light travels in straight lines and as far as I'm concerned it moves faster than anything. I know this is a very short question, but the answer is simple. If you ask 'why' you can just search light and you will be able to find out why.

What would be the angle with which the projectile should be projected to form semi circle trajectory?

If you were on the earth you would not be able to perform this feat. The only non-practical method of doing this is to be in space and shoot horizontally. Your trajectory is always a parabola unless you reach escape velocity.

What force makes the coilgun work?

the force of objects being attracted by magnets. the coils or solenoids act as magnets and the projectile (which must be able to attract to magnets, often iron or steel is used) is attracted to the coils. but when the projectile reaches the coil the coil must be turned off so the projectile keeps going instead of stopping at the coil.
