How do you write height and width statements?
I assume You mean, Which Comes first Height or Width? Typically when speaking its Width First then Height. Example: When someone is describing the resolution of the Computer monitor they may say I have my resolution set at 640 by 480 (640 x 480) This refers to the WIDTH x HEIGHT of the pixels in the resolution (640 Pixels Horizontally/WIDTH & 480 Pixels Vertically/HEIGHT)
What is the average height of an first grade female?
3'11"
What height the Eiffel Tower?
the first floor of the eiffel tower is 57 meters high and 360 steps from the ground, the second at 115 meters and 1060 meters from the ground. the last floor the third one is at 274 meters from the ground and is only reachable by lift.
Is it possible to increase one's height?
It is only possible to increase one's height if there was a medical condition inhibiting growth in the first place or a person has not finished growing. There are also rumoured surgical procedures to help lengthen a persons legs.
What is the actual height of Mount Everest?
1852 First Height Recorded: 29.002ft or 8.839m 1955 Revised Height: 29.028ft or 8.848m 1999 Revised Height: 29.035ft or 8.850m 2005 Revised Height: 29.017ft 2inches or 8.844.43m or: Sea Level to Mount Everest Summit is 5.5 Miles Most common used height referred to is: 29.028ft or 8.848m
A dart is fired horizontally from a dart gun and another dart is dropped simultaneously from the same height If air resistance can be neglected which dart hits the ground first?
they hit same time
If a stone and a pencil are dropped simultaneously in vacuum fron the same height which of two will reach the ground first?
They will both hit the ground at the same time.
2 balls dropped horizontally and vertically.Which ball strikes ground first why?
Please describe how you drop something 'horizontally'
A marble a textbook and a flaming stick are simultaneously dropped from a height of 10 feet if air resistance upon the falling objects is small enough that it can be neglected which will hit first?
They will hit the ground simultaneously. Gravitational pull is the same on all matter.
Are receptacles installed horizontally or vertically?
The NEC doesn't specify. Generally they are installed vertically with the ground on bottom. In the world that I work in the ground is always installed on top. This is so if a gap exists between an outlet and the plug, anything falling into the gap hits the ground first and not across the hot and neutral wires simultaneously. Expanding on this premise an outlet installed horizontally with the neutral on top is the most safe installation. But I have never seen this done.
If two object of different density are dropped simultaneously which one will hit the ground first?
as done in Galileo's experiment when he dropped a large rock and a feather from a tall tower both hit the ground at the same moment when dropped from the same height.
If a hammer and feather were dropped simultaneously from the same height on the asteroid Ceres which would hit the ground first?
They would hit the surface together, after a very long time. Gravity on Ceres is pretty light.
Which will hit the ground first a ball thrown horizontally at 2 meters per second off a building 20 m high or a ball dropped by a hand at the same height?
They should reach the ground together, since their initial vertical speed is the same, namely zero.
If a cannon fires a cannonball horizontally and you drop a cannonball at the same time which will hit the ground first?
A cannonball fired horizontally and one dropped from the height of the muzzle simultaneous with the shot will hit the ground at the same instant, provided only that the ground under the muzzle and the ground where the shot lands are at the same elevation, i.e. the shot was not fired off the edge of a cliff or into the side of a mountain. To solve this kind of problems, it often helps to separate the movement, or the speed, into vertical and horizontal components. In this case, the vertical component of the speed is the same.
When a body is projected simultaneously from the top of the building with different initial horizontal velocity which of the two will hit the ground first?
Ignoring air resistance, the horizontal component of velocity has no connection with, and no effect on, the vertical component. Two bodies that leave the top of the building simultaneously with the same vertical velocity hit the ground at the same time, regardless of their horizontal velocities or their masses. That's the same as saying that a bullet fired horizontally from a gun and a bullet or a stone dropped from the gun's muzzle at the same instant hit the ground at the same instant. Strange but true.
A bullet is fired horizontally out of a gun at the same time another is dropped from the end of the barrelthe one to hit the ground first is?
Both hit at the same time.
