Depends on the vertical distane in question
To calculate the total vertical distance traveled, we can sum the distances for each drop. Since the ball reaches half the height from the previous drop, the total distance traveled can be calculated using the formula: initial drop height + initial drop height/2 + initial drop height/4 + initial drop height/8.
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 physics, drop height refers to the vertical distance an object falls under the influence of gravity. It is commonly used to calculate potential energy, kinetic energy, and impact force of a falling object. The higher the drop height, the greater the potential energy and impact force upon landing.
The total vertical distance the ball has traveled is 96 feet, calculated as 48 feet for the initial drop plus 48 feet for the sum of the bounces (24 feet for the first bounce and 12 feet for the second bounce).
Voltage drop occurs with distance in electrical circuits due to resistance in the conductors. The longer the distance, the higher the resistance, causing a drop in voltage. This can affect the performance of electrical systems if the voltage drop is significant.
The vertical drop of a stream channel over distance is known as the Gradient.

To calculate the total vertical distance traveled, we can sum the distances for each drop.

The term is known as stream gradient, which represents the steepness of a stream channel and is calculated as the vertical drop of a stream over a specific horizontal distance. It is expressed in feet per mile or meters per kilometer.
To calculate the vertical drop over a given horizontal distance due to a slope, we use the formula: vertical drop = horizontal distance * tan(slope angle). Given a 3-degree slope over 1 meter, the vertical drop would be 1 meter * tan(3 degrees), which is approximately 0.0524 meters or 5.24 centimeters. This means that for every 1 meter of horizontal distance, the elevation would decrease by about 5.24 centimeters.
A 5-degree fall over 2 meters corresponds to a vertical drop of approximately 0.174 meters, or about 17.4 centimeters. This can be calculated using basic trigonometry, where the vertical drop (rise) is the sine of the angle multiplied by the horizontal distance. In this case, ( \text{Drop} = 2 \times \sin(5^\circ) ).
A fall of 4 degrees over 1 meter refers to a slope or incline where the vertical drop is 4 degrees relative to the horizontal. To calculate the vertical drop, you can use the tangent function: the vertical drop is approximately 0.07 meters (or 7 centimeters) over 1 meter of horizontal distance. This represents a gentle slope, as 4 degrees is a small angle.
If the voltage is supplying any current through the cable, i.e. if there is any 'load' at the end, then the voltage will drop through the cable.

Yes absolutely, Roller Coasters ( depending on the type ) are very able to descend down a vertical angle. Vertical Drop , Dive , Eurofighters roller coaster and more can drop down a vertical drop, some roller coasters can even descend down steeper than vertical drops!!
