Just like on earth, it comes down. Most astronauts entertained themselves by throwing things on the moon. They found out that things fly much further on the moon due to the lower gravity. However, the astronauts could not throw things as far because their suits were very constrictive.

What would happen if a ball was thrown and there was no gravity?

If there was no gravity, the ball would not fall back down to the ground after being thrown. It would continue in a straight line with the same speed and direction it was thrown with until it was affected by another force.


What causes the change in the moon's phases?

imagine being in a dark room and holding up a black ball, which you can't see. then you turn on a flashlight and shine it on the moon. you can see the part of the ball that the flashlight shines on but you can't see the other half. now walk around the ball withought getting in the light's way. when you are behind the ball, you can't see it at all. when you are to the side of the ball, you can see half of it. when you are in front of the ball, you can see the whole thing. the ball represents the moon, the flashlight is the sun, and you are the earth. technicaly the ball should be going around you and not you around the ball, but the same effect will happen. this is how moon phases work.


What are those holes in the moon called?

The holes are called craters. They are the sites of impact of meteors and meteorites. The walls of the holes consist of dust thrown up and out by the impact.


Which phase is the moon when it passes between Earth and the sun?

That happens at New Moon and it is the time for a solar eclipse when those three objects line up exactly.


What happens during a last quarter moon?

During a last quarter moon, the moon appears half-illuminated in the sky. This phase marks the halfway point between a full moon and a new moon. The illuminated portion of the moon is decreasing, leading up to the new moon phase.

Can a keeper pick up the ball if its thrown in?

If the ball was thrown-in by a teammate, no. If the ball was thrown-in by an opponent, yes.


What is the main type of energy conversion that happens to a ball thrown in the air as it goes up?

The main type of energy conversion that happens to a ball thrown in the air as it goes up is from kinetic energy (energy of motion) to potential energy (stored energy due to position). As the ball moves upwards against the force of gravity, its kinetic energy decreases while its potential energy increases.


What is the main type of energy conversion that happens to a ball thrown in the air as it goes up apex?

The main type of energy conversion that happens to a ball thrown in the air as it reaches its apex is the conversion of kinetic energy (energy of motion) into potential energy (energy of position). At the apex, the ball has momentarily stopped moving vertically, so its kinetic energy is at a minimum and its potential energy is at a maximum.


Is a ball thrown up in the air a gravitational force?

Yes, when a ball is thrown up in the air, gravity is still acting on it. Gravity is the force that causes objects to be pulled towards the center of the Earth.


What is a change up pitch in softball?

'Change up' is another name for a 'slow ball'. Where a fast ball may be thrown around 90 or so MPH, a change up would be thrown in the 75-80 MPH range. It is thrown with the same motion as a fast ball and is used to fool the batter into swinging early at the pitch.


When a ball is thrown up in the air what happens to the kinetic energy and potential energy?

When a ball is thrown up in the air, its kinetic energy decreases as it moves against gravity due to its speed reducing. At the same time, its potential energy increases as it gains height and moves further away from the Earth's surface. As the ball reaches its highest point, its kinetic energy is at a minimum and potential energy is at a maximum.


Which will go higher when thrown straight up a regulation tennis ball or a golf ball?

How do you make a poke ball to work like a master ball in silver version?

when the poke ball is thrown hold a and b in everytime the ball shakes press up


Why does the speed of the ball thrown up decrease?

The speed of a ball thrown up decreases because of gravity acting against the initial velocity. As the ball goes up, gravity pulls it back down, causing its speed to decrease until it reaches its peak height and momentarily stops before falling back down.
