Does the horizontal velocity of a ball affect how fast it falls?

No. The force depends only on the height of the ball and on the mass of the ball. The force due to the earth's gravitional field varies inversly with the distance from the center of the earth to the center of the ball.

∙ 8y agoThe horizontal motion of a falling object increases its total speed, but does not change the rate at which it loses altitude (falls). This is a function of gravity. Both the horizontal and vertical velocities would be affected by air resistance, if any.

What happens to the horizontal velocity of a ball after it rolls off a table?
The horizontal velocity will be equal to the translational velocity of the ball right before it falls off the table. ============================== When we do exercises that deal with the behavior of the ball after it leaves the edge of the table, we always ignore air resistance. When we do that, the horizontal component of velocity remains constant forever, or at least until the ball hits something.
Does gravity affect a soccer ball when it falls?
yes!.... it will affect a soccer ball when it falls because if the gravity affects you, it will affect a ball.
The horizontal and vertical components of the initial velocity of a tennis ball are 18.2 ms and 21.3 ms respectively what is the magnitude of the initial velocity of the ball?
To take the magnitude of the velocity you will need to square both the horizontal and vertical components and then take the square root of their sum. So: V=(Vx2+Vy2)1/2
Does the size of a ball affect the velocity on which the ball goes?
not counting variables such as wind resistance and such, no

The velocity time graph of a ball moving on surface of floor is shown in figure calculate the force acting on ball if mass of floor is 20gram?
a ball rolled across a horizontal table moved at cont ant velocity why?
If you are running at a constant speed how should you throw the ball in order to catch it when it comes down?
Straight up in the air. It's already moving at your speed, so it's horizontal velocity will remain constant. Vertical motion and horizontal motion don't affect each other.
How will the path of the ball appear to you if you accidentally drop a ball while inside a moving bus?
If the bus is moving at a constant horizontal velocity relative to you and the ball, there is no horizontal acceleration and therefore no horizontal force. The only force acting on the ball is gravity, which is vertical, so the ball will just fall straight down next to you.
The speed of the ball is negative while the ball falls back toward the earth?
That depends on the reference we take.....If we take the velocity upwards to be +ve than the velocity downwards will be negative and vice versa....
Ball kicked into the air at an angle of 34.0 degrees above the horizontal the initial velocity of the ball is 25.0 ms How long is the soccer ball in the air?
the soccer ball in the air is at 56.o speed
