A ball is more likely to travel further on a dry day, as the air is less dense compared to a humid day. The higher density of humid air can create more air resistance, resulting in a shorter distance traveled by the ball.

Which way would a ball travel is it is spun counter clockwise?

If a ball is spun counter clockwise, it would travel in the direction opposite of the spin. So, it would move to the right if you are looking at it from above.


Explain using Newton's second law Why can you throw a golf ball further than a bowling ball even though you throw both at the same angle and with the same amount of force?

both will have same kinetic energy ,so forward velocity will be lower for bowling ball , the time to go up then down to the ground under gravity will be the same for both, so distance = velocity * time , so lighter (golf)ball will travel further because its velocity is higher second thoughts, assume launch angle same for both, ball with greater launch velocity will travel further. (laws of ballistics) if work done on ball (f * d) is same on both , the lighter ball will have greater launch velocity, though both will have same kinetic energy at launch


Would you be able to hit a golf ball farther on earth or Pluto?

You would hit a golf ball farther on Earth due to its stronger gravitational pull compared to Pluto's weaker gravity. This means the ball would stay in the air longer on Earth and travel a greater distance before landing.


What distance does a ball have as the graetest amount of kinetic energy?

the question is asked in a ambiguous way, i would need more information to answer the question. i would need to know the where the ball is located to know the distance of witch it would travel. Example: if it was in the earths atmosphere it would be one answer, but if it was in space it would be another.


Why would a ping pong ball go farther with holes in it then with no holes?

The holes reduce the air resistance acting on the ball by allowing air to flow through them. This decreases the drag force on the ball, enabling it to travel farther than a ball without holes.

Will a ball with more air travel further than one with less air?

Yes, a ball with more air will travel further because it has less surface area touching the ground, reducing friction and allowing it to roll more easily. Additionally, more air inside the ball increases its bounce, giving it more energy to travel further.


Will a golf ball with dimples travel further than a smooth ball?

Yes, it will also fly straighter and more consistently.


Does the different type of surface affect the distance a ball travels?

Yes. The viscosity, smoothness, slant, hardness and other factors of the surface would affect the distance a ball would travel. For example, a ball will travel much farther down a wet aluminum slide than up a sand dune.


If gravity did not affect the path of a horizontally thrown ball what would happen to the ball?

travel horizontally


Which ball would go further a baseball or a basketball?

baseball


What goes farther tennis ball baseball golf ball or ping pong ball?

Depends upon how much force is given when hit, kicked or thrown. The table tennis ball however has no mass to it at all, so it would travel the least distance no matter how much force was given at point of launch. A Golf ball can travel some 350 yards with the right angle and pro golfer.


Which way would a ball travel is it is spun counter clockwise?

If a ball is spun counter clockwise, it would travel in the direction opposite of the spin. So, it would move to the right if you are looking at it from above.


Will a tennis ball or baseball go farther?

A warm basball would travel further since the molecules in the ball are moving faster than if it was colder. Although this change of temperature would be very insignificant in everyday life. There would be a greeter affect in the distance if the bat was warm compared to the ball being warm. So if you wan't the ball to travel far have a warm bat and then it will have a lot of 'pop'. If you hit it with a bat, a warm ball will go further. The molecules in the ball are held together less tightly and are more bouncy, so instead of work being done by vibrating the bat, all energy is transferred into the ball.


Why does a spiral travel further than a whobby ball?

A spiral travels farther because it doesn't have an unbalanced weight.


Does a soccer ball curl more in humid or dry conditions?

I believe the humid weather due to the fact that the weather can usually affect the outcome of the total spin of the soccer ball.


Would it be a travel if you are in a dribble toward the goal you jump grab the ball with both hands come down and take two steps and lay the ball in Is this a travel jump step or nothing?

that is a travel
