Do all bullets drop the same vertical distance in equal time?

Bullets will drop almost the same vertical distance in equal time. The limitation is the vertical drag force on the bullet. If fired in a flat trajectory, a bullet will start with no vertical velocity. As it continues on its path however, the force of gravity will impart some vertical velocity to it. Initially the vertical component of the drag force will be negligible, but the longer it flies, the faster it drops. At some point the drag force becomes noticeable and the roughness of the bullet surface and geometry of the bullet begin to play a role in how much vertical drag force is exhibited. Most of the time a bullet will hit its target before this effect makes much difference, but if you fired two different bullets from the top of a very high mountain and tracked their flight you would probably find them dropping at different speeds towards the end of their flight.

In projectile motion Why is the vertical component of velocity zero at the highest point of the trajectory?

Just before it reaches the highest point, the vertical component of velocity is upward.Just after it passes the highest point, the vertical component of velocity is downward.There's no way you can change from an upward velocity to a downward velocity smoothlywithout velocity being zero at some instant. A.True.


How does vertical acceleration change when an object is dropped?

It doesn't. The acceleration is the same before and after; the only thing that changes is that the opposing force goes away.


What is an experiment you could perform to determine the average speed of a toy car rolling down an incline?

Simple physics, Velocity(Speed)=Distance traveled / Time taken so measure a set distance down your incline and time the toy rolling down if you want a true speed make sure the toy is going at full speed before it crosses the start line and you start your timer, otherwise you will get an average including the toys acceleration time and as such won't be a true representation

How does the angle of release affect the motion of a projectile both vertical and horizontal?

Smaller angles will result in a larger horizontal velocity and smaller vertical velocity. The times of flight will also be shorter since it's closer to the ground. Larger angles have a larger vertical velocity and smaller horizontal velocity. Time of flight will be much longer since it is higher above the ground. As for distance, 45 degrees will result in the greatest distance and for every distance before the furthest one there is an angle above 45 degrees and an angle below 45 degrees that will result in that distance.

When a body is thrown vertically to reach a height h before returning to Earth what is the distance traveled and the displacement?

The distance travelled is 2h (it went up 'h' and came down 'h', having travelled 'h' distance twice), and the displacement is 0 (assuming it landed where it took off from).


How do you calculate the horizontal distance traveled by an object if you are given the horizontal velocity and time in the air?

You cannot because you do not know how long before the object falls to the ground and so stops moving.
