What else can I help you with?
A bullet is fired horizontally out of a gun at the same time another is dropped from the end of the barrelthe one to hit the ground first is?
The bullet fired horizontally will hit the ground first, given that it has an initial horizontal velocity that keeps it moving forward from the moment it leaves the gun. On the other hand, the bullet dropped from the end of the barrel only has the force of gravity acting on it, causing it to fall vertically, which is slower than the horizontal motion of the fired bullet.
If you drop a bullet and fire a rifle at the same time will the bullets hit the ground at the same time?
Technically, yes. There are many variables to consider though like recoil, wind resistance, the barrel of the weapon, etc. The Mythbusters actually did that test. You could probably find that video somewhere.
If a rifle is fired horizontally and an identical bullet dropped from the height of the barrel Which hits the ground first?
They hit at almost exactly the same time. Just because the bullet from the gun is moving horizontally at high speed, this does not mean it escapes the pull of gravity. However, the direction of the fired bullet is "horizontal" (perpendicular to the vertical pull of gravity). This vector is very slightly tangential to the force of gravity, because the Earth is curved. So although the bullet path describes an arc, it is very, very slightly above the curvature of the Earth. The difference for this case would be practically immeasurable. However, for faster projectiles it would be proportionally larger.
Will a bullet fired from a level gun hit the earth at the same time as the gun if it is dropped at the same time?
no. as long as there are no obstacles present, the bullet would theoretically fall longer than the gun, because the Earth is curved, and the Earth would curve away from the bullet just a little bit before the bullet reached the Earth's surface, making the fall just a little bit longer. this effect will be magnified if the bullet moves at a very high velocity. This is essentially what happens when an object is in orbit, only when an object is in orbit, it is moving quickly enough that the Earth has completely curved out of it's falling path before it reaches the ground.
Does horizontal speed affect gravity?
No, horizontal speed does not affect gravity. Gravity acts vertically and is the same for all objects regardless of their horizontal speed. However, horizontal speed can affect the trajectory of an object's motion in relation to gravity.
A bullet dropped versus a bullet fired from a gun which has greater acceleration?
The bullet fired from a gun has greater horizontal acceleration. For vertical acceleration, they are both the same.
A bullet is fired horizontally out of a gun at the same time another is dropped from the end of the barrelthe one to hit the ground first is?
The bullet fired horizontally will hit the ground first, given that it has an initial horizontal velocity that keeps it moving forward from the moment it leaves the gun. On the other hand, the bullet dropped from the end of the barrel only has the force of gravity acting on it, causing it to fall vertically, which is slower than the horizontal motion of the fired bullet.
What will hit the ground first the bullet shot horizontally or the one dropped?
In theory, if a bullet dropped vertically at the same instant that a bullet is fired horizontally from a gun at the same height, they should both hit the ground at the same time.This example is used to emphasize that that horizontal motion and vertical motion may be analysed separately since they occur independently of each other.This is one of those things that works better in theory than in practice.There is a caveat that is important if you consider doing this in the real world. The process is not happening in a vacuum. The aerodynamics of the bullet fired at high speed is tremendously important. In early gun design, this was not understood and bullets fired from guns were very inaccurate and went up or down or right or left in unpredictable ways. Modern guns stabilize the trajectory by putting a spin on the bullet. The result makes the bullet act like a gyroscope and then to remain pointed forward when it encounters small anomalies in the air and wind. So, the moving bullet is subjected to vertical forces and can not be expected to drop at the same rate as a bullet with no horizontal motion.The principle of independent horizontal and vertical motion works better when illustrated by throwing and dropping heavy rocks. The principle is entirely correct, but there are more vertical forces involved than gravity with the bullets.
Where did the US drop the atom bomb?
Two bombs were dropped, Both on the mainland of Japan. One bomb was dropped at Hiroshima on August 6th with the other one being dropped three days later at Nagasaki.
If a bullet is shot from a gun and another bullet falls from a barrel which falls first?
If a gun was parallel with the earth and was fired and at that very instant someone standing by the barrel dropped a bullet from beside the barrel, both bullets would hit the ground at the same time. Bullets start falling the instant they leave the end of the gun barrel. That is why hunters hold their rifles at an upward angle. It looks like the bullet will shoot up into the sky. The bullet will follow a curved path toward its target.
Gun powder what is it?
The two common forms are black powder, and smokeless powder. Both are low explosives, used to propel a bullet. While they arer different chemically, both contain a fuel and an oxidizer mixed together. When ignited, they burn very quickly, producing rapidly expanding gasses (which is what propels the bullet)
The US dropped atomic bombs on hiroshima and what other country?
The United States dropped atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki both being cities of Japan. There was no other country were atomic weapons had been used against mankind.

Which would you hear first-the crach of a gun fired or the bullet's sonic boom?
If they are at the same distance, you should hear them together. The speed of sound would be the same in both cases.
What do plant and animal have together?
they both have life. they both need oxygen. they both need to reproduce. and they both need each other.
