Gravity accelerates the centres of the two masses towards their joint centre of mass. Obviously, if there is a huge difference between the two objects, such as a ball and the earth, the centre of mass of the combined system will be indistinguishably close to the centre of the earth and so it will accelerate the ball towards the centre of the earth. Also, while it will accelerate the earth towards the ball, the force will be too small to measure.
Since the rate of acceleration due to gravity is equal for all objects, the ball you drop first will most likely bounce first.
No. The ball in a roulette wheel, a baseball, and a golf-ball are all moving andall under the influence of gravity, but all executing very different patterns ofspeed and direction.
Golf ball
a golf ball because it has less mass
Assuming the ball is a perfect sphere of uniform density, and is suspended from a massless string, the centre of gravity is in the centre of the ball.
a jawbreaker
As in club? A 7 iron up. But as in type, an oversized iron with a low centre of gravity, this will help get the ball in the air, and therefore get the ball to stop on the green quicker.
Gravity.
On the moon. When a golf ball is struck on earth, gravity slows it and brings it to a halt. On the moon, there is very little gravity, so the potential energy of the golf ball is limitless.
Yes. The moon has gravity.
The COG of a golf club is the centre of gravity. The clubs are designed to have a low COG to get the ball airborne. For high handicap clubs, there is a lot of weight to the club, drawing the COG to make sure the ball gets up easier, and also makes the clubs very forgiving.
A golf ball is a small ball (with a dimpled surface) that is used in the game of golf. It has a small centre of semi-liquid latex rubber, which is surrounded by a wrapping of a narrow elastic ribbon to bring the ball to the correct size (volume). There is an outer harder plastic skin to produce the finished golf ball.
A backweight is a weight attached to the back of a golf club in order to give it a lower centre of gravity.
Wide soles on golf clubs are more forgiving if you catch the ground slightly before the ball it will slide along to the ball and still go pretty well, unlike with a thinner sole where it could go right into the ground and the ball would go right in front of you. They also allow the manufacturer to put the centre of gravity lower and to the back thus making it easier to get the ball in the air.
the higher the ball goes it starts floating
if the golf ball is hit into the air, the forces on the golf ball are pushing (when the golf ball is hit) and air resistance (when it is flying through the air). when the ball hits the ground and starts to roll, the only force acting on it is friction.
