Yes, because there is less gravity on the moon.

Also, because there is no air friction on the Moon.

However, a frisbee thrown on the Moon will not travel as far as one properly thrown on Earth, because the shape of the frisbee generates lift which will keep it flying farther. With no air on the Moon, a frisbee cannot "fly".

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


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...


Will an object travel farther if launched from a higher elevation for example will I travel farther horizontally if I jump horizontally from a higher elevation versus ground level?

Yes, an object will travel farther horizontally if launched from a higher elevation due to having more initial potential energy which can be converted into kinetic energy. This is known as the principle of conservation of energy. So, jumping horizontally from a higher elevation will allow you to travel farther than if you were to jump from ground level.


Will a light or heavy object go farther in a catapult?

A lighter object will generally go farther in a catapult because it can be launched with more speed due to its lower mass. The lighter object requires less force to accelerate and it experiences less air resistance during flight, allowing it to travel farther.


Is the following true or false an object that is dropped will hit the is ground before an object that is thrown horizontally from the same height?

True. Both objects, when released from the same height, will experience the same gravitational acceleration regardless of their horizontal motion. Therefore, the object that is dropped will hit the ground at the same time as the object thrown horizontally, assuming no air resistance. However, the dropped object will fall straight down, while the thrown object will travel horizontally as it falls.


Will a balloon go farther than a football?

It depends on the circumstances. Generally, a football will go farther when thrown due to its aerodynamic shape and weight distribution. A balloon will drift with the wind and may travel far if caught in a strong breeze.


If gravity did not effect the path of a horizontally thrown ball the ball would travel horizontally?

If gravity did not affect a horizontally thrown ball, it would travel in a straight line horizontally at a constant velocity. Gravity only acts vertically, causing the ball to fall towards the ground, so without this vertical force, the horizontal motion would remain unaffected.


Why do objects that are thrown follow a curved path?

Objects that are thrown follow a curved path due to the influence of gravity and the initial forward velocity given to the object. Gravity pulls the object downward, causing it to accelerate, while the initial forward velocity allows the object to travel horizontally. The combination of these two forces results in the object following a curved trajectory known as a parabola.


How do you remove a metal object stuck up your anal passage can it travel up?

the large colon makes a transverse turn several inches up. the object cannot travel up any farther past that. the only way to get it out is to try and push. if that is unsuccessful, please seek medical attention.


How is air resistance related to a catapult?

Air resistance can affect the trajectory of a projectile launched by a catapult by slowing it down as it travels through the air. The greater the air resistance, the shorter the distance the object will travel. Designing a catapult with aerodynamic components can help minimize the impact of air resistance on the projectile's flight path.


Which size do you think the wind would carry farther?

Generally, smaller objects are carried farther by the wind because they have less surface area to resist the wind's force. A lighter weight can also enable an object to catch more gusts and travel further.
