If a baseball and a marble are dropped at the same time which one will hit the ground first?
Aristotle thought that the heavier object drops faster, and a majority of people in 2013 probably still do. The way gravity actually works, however, is that if air resistance can be ignored, then everything from a piece of tissue to a battleship hits the ground at the same time, having accelerated at the same rate and matched their speed at every point during their fall.
A stone is thrown upward from a roof at the same time as another identical stone is dropped from there What is true of the two stones?
A) the dropped one hits the ground first B) the tossed one hits harder
Would an object have the same density on the moon as it does on the earth?
Yes, it would have the same density. The volume of an object does not change no matter where it is. So on the moon the object would have the same mass and volume as it would on earth; therefore that object would have the same density. Density equals mass divided by volume.
How is an echo produced?
Imagine a pool of water. If you dropped a rock in the water you would cause ripples that would travel out evenly in all directions. When one of those ripples hits a wall, you can see that the ripple bounces off the wall. Sound works the same way. Sound is basically just ripples in the air (vibrations). When a sound vibration hits a wall it bounces back much like the ripples in water. * When you hit something and waves travel through the air to your ears. Sometimes sound reflects again.
Describe a stone falling off the tabletop in terms of both kinetic energy and potential energy?
Sitting on the table the stone has potential energy, relative to the ground, of weight times height, mgh. It has zero kinetic energy so its total energy is E = 0 + mgh. When it begins falling it loses potential energy (as it loses height) and gains kinetic energy ( as it picks up speed) so the sum stays the same as initially E = KE + PE = mgh. Just before it hits the ground all of its potential energy is gone and has been transformed into kinetic energy. So the kinetic energy at the bottom (1/2)mv^2 will equal the potential energy at the top.
What is the sound rain makes when it hits the ground?
pitter patter
On the Moon if a basketball and a feather are dropped from the same height about the ground which one hits first?
both reaches the ground at the same time because in the moon there occurs free fall.
Do objects fall at the same rate on a planet with no atmosphere?
No, because there is no air to slow the down. For deeper analysis, check youtube, hammer and feather experiment on the moon. They hit the ground at the same time on the moon because there is no atmosphere, but if you drop a hammer and a feather on earth the hammer, obviously, hits first.
Feather a tennis ball and a bowling ball are dropped from a high tower on the moon's surface Which object hits the ground first?
Because the earth is bigger than both so they get pulled down with gravity at the same time
What sound does a tornado make when it hits the ground?
When a tornado hits the ground, it produces an extremely loud and distinct sound, often described as a continuous roaring or freight train-like noise. This sound is caused by the powerful winds swirling and causing destruction, along with the debris and objects being picked up and thrown around by the tornado.
Is a batter awarded first base if the ball hits the ground first in womens fast pitch softball?
If it hits the ground then hits the batter then yes. If it just hits the ground then no.
If a meteror hits the ground it is then called what?
When a meteor hits the ground it is called a meteorite.
If batted ball hits a base before it hits the ground is it an out?
No, it is simply a ground ball and is in play.
Can Lightning and thunder occur simultaneously?
No. Thunder is the result of lightning when it hits the ground. After lightning hits the ground the air expands (because of the increase in temp.) and quickly condenses. That air condensing is what we hear when there is thunder. Because light travels faster than sound we see lightning then hear thunder.
How many no 1 hits doesnt have the title in the song?
42
What happens before the tornado hits the ground?
The tornado is a twister before it hits the ground, it just spins in the sky, kind of
Is it a kill when the volleyball drops after hitting it into the net?
Yes you have to play it after it hits the net because if it hits the net and then hits the ground the point goes to the other team
