What else can I help you with?
Will a bullet travel the same distance straight up that it would horizontally?
No. The horizontal distance depends on how close the the ground the gun is. From the firing position, a bullet dropped to the ground will strike the ground in the same time as a bullet shot horizontally forward.
What is a platypus's average height when fully grown?
Platyypuses are measured in length rather than height. Platypuses are not measured for how tall they are, as they stay close to the ground. At most, they would be less than 20cm (8 inches) in height at the shoulder.
Which one is correct sentence I would prefer to play soccer than go bowling or I would prefer to play soccer than to go bowling?
Answerlook at it this way: If I were to say, "I'd prefer to play soccer." It would be correct. If I said, "I'd prefer go bowling." It wouldn't make sense. The sentence would be "I'd prefer to play soccer than to go bowling." Break it up into two separate sentences and it's a lot easier.
How does the height from which you drop a ball affect the height that the ball bounces?
If the collision involving the ball hitting the ground was perfectly elastic (the system's energy is conserved) then the ball would return to it's original height. However, this is a "perfect world" situation, since no collision can be completely elastic (except for on the atomic scale, but that is another topic). Energy is lost by the friction of the ground, sound, air resistance etc...
What is your height in feet if im 62.5?
your height would be than 5'2
What will hit the ground first a bowling ball or an apple?
Assuming both were dropped from the same height above ground, in a vacuum both would hit the ground at the same time. In a significant atmosphere (e.g. average ground-level on Earch) the bowling ball would hit the ground first.
When You Drop An Object From A Certain Height It Takes Time T To Reach The Ground With No Air Resistance. If You Dropped It From Three Times That Height How Long Would It Take To Reach The Ground?
When an object is dropped from a certain height, the time it takes to reach the ground is independent of the height (assuming no air resistance). Therefore, whether you drop the object from three times the initial height or the original height, it will still take the same time (T) to reach the ground.
What would happen if an apple and an orange were dropped from the same height at the same time?
They would both SPLAT on the ground at the same instant.
Rae dropped a bowling ball from a height of 8 meters. At which distance above the ground was the ball MOST likely moving at the greatest speed?
Still accelerating til it hits earth. ====================================== The height from which she dropped the ball is irrelevant. In any case, the ball was most likely moving at the greatest speed just as it hit the ground. The answer to the question is: zero.
Is it true or false dropping a tennis ball bowling ball and a feather would hit the ground in the same time?
True, in a vacuum where there is no air resistance, a tennis ball, a bowling ball, and a feather would hit the ground at the same time when dropped from the same height. This is because all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass when only gravity acts upon them. However, in the presence of air, the feather would fall more slowly due to air resistance.
What would land first if it was dropped from a plane a bowling ball or a tennis ball?
According to the laws of physics they would fall at the same rate and land at the same time. However, all variables are not the same. The lightness of the tennis ball would leave it more apt to be affected by winds aloft, including updrafts. Additionally, the fuzzy covering of the tennis ball would make it subject to more wind resistance than the bowling ball, thereby slowing it down more. They would still strike the ground very close together, but the bowling ball would be first.If, however, a bowling ball and a baseball were dropped from the plane, they would strike the ground more-or-less simultaneously.
Does a marble and a bowling ball hit the ground at the same time?
In a vacuum, they would hit the ground at the same time due to gravity. However, in the real world with air resistance, the bowling ball would typically hit the ground first because it has more mass and air resistance affects lighter objects more.
Imagine an experiment in which a 16lb bowling ball and a 10lb bowling ball are dropped from the fifth floor at the same time The heavier ball will reach the ground first?
No. They will hit the ground at the same time. The inertia for the heavier ball will be greater, but the acceleration for both will be the same, and both would (if the air resistance is the same for both) hit at the same time.
How many seconds does it take for a volleyball to hit the ground from feet in the air?
The time it takes for a volleyball to hit the ground when dropped from a height depends on the height it falls from. Using the formula for free fall ( t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}} ), where ( h ) is the height in meters and ( g ) is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately ( 9.81 , m/s^2 )), you can calculate the time. For example, if dropped from 2 meters, it would take about 0.64 seconds to hit the ground.
Suppose a baseball and a marble are dropped at the time from the same height which ball would land first?
Discounting any friction with the air, they would both hit the ground at the same time.
How long will it take an object dropped from a height of 500 feet to hit the ground?
Assuming the object is dropped from rest and neglecting air resistance, it would take approximately 7.0 seconds for the object to hit the ground from a height of 500 feet. This is based on the formula t = sqrt(2h/g), where t is the time, h is the height, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 32.2 ft/s^2).
How long would it take for a ball to hit the ground if dropped from the statue of liberty?
The ESB is much wider at its base than at its top, so no object dropped from its top would hit the sidewalk. HOWEVER, an object dropped from the height of the ESB would, if it experienced no air friction nor hit anything along the way, would hit the ground in 8.8 seconds. However, air friction would delay this by a few seconds, as a small ball would experience air resistance before that time.
