What kind of motion would you expect if you threw a ball at the moon?

The same motion a ball would do on earth. Theoretically, it would go much further on the moon, but the astronauts who threw things on the moon were restricted by their pressure suits. They couldn't reach back and throw anything. They had to fling it like a discus. Had they been able to throw overhanded, it would have gone a lot further.


What is the motion of a ball around a rod?

The motion would be circular characteristic of the centripital forces applied to the ball.


What would happen if you threw a ball in outer space?

You would go backwards because for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction. Addendum: Actually, being in freefall (microgravity actually), your body would begin a complicated spin. Keep in mind that you mould move equal to both the mass of the ball and the inertial force of the arching motion of your arm.


What would happen if a planet had no inertia?

Inertia is defined by Newton's first law, "Objects in motion stay in motion, objects at rest stay at rest" If a planet had no inertia it could come to a stop or accelerate to high speeds without any force applied to it. It also would not find an orbit. Inertia is a fundamental property of the law of conservation of energy. Without it, the planet, and the universe would be quite, quite different.


What happens if you throw a ball in space?

The ball would eventually stop as space is not a true vacuum - there are particles in space it’s just that they are very spaced out. But it would easily travel a great distance easily a couple hundred to a thousand light years before it stops although nobody is sure quite how far it would go. It would also matter which direction you threw it in. For instance if you threw the ball very precisely towards a planet, star, moon, black hole or other celestial body it would eventually end up in a stable orbit around it. If you threw it into an area that has a lot of space debris it will eventually wind up part of that space debris. Chances of the ball encountering another object in the interstellar medium are exceedingly low to say the least. But not impossible. It would most likely be attracted by a nearby gravity well first.

If a person in a train moving at high speeds threw a ball straight into the air would the ball continue at the same speed as the thrower or would it travel a different speed?

The ball would continue to move at the same speed as the train in the horizontal direction, but its vertical speed would be affected by gravity. The overall motion of the ball would be a combination of the horizontal motion at the speed of the train and the vertical motion due to gravity.

Name two examples of simple compound and complex sentences?

A simple sentence would be: John threw the ball. A compound sentence would be: John threw the ball and Mary caught it. A complex sentence would be: Before John threw the ball, he checked to make sure it had air in it.

Friction always acts in a direction?

Friction always acts in the direction opposite to the the motion of the object.For example, if a bowling ball rolls to the right, friction would act to the left.Without friction, if you threw a ball, it would keep going forever. Friction slows objects down.


What is example of motion?

An example would be a ball rolling down a hill. The ball rolling down would show motion.
