Why must an arrow be pointed a little above the target in order to hit the target in the center?
answ2. As soon as your projectile (arrow, bullet, stone) leaves the propelling device, gravity and air resistance hold sway.
Your projectile will descend due to the force of gravity, and it will slow down due to air resistance.
A bullet travelling at 1000 feet per second, aimed at a target 1000 feet away, will drop by 16 feet below its aiming target. So we adjust our gun sights to allow for this, in the given case, 16 feet above the target.
For long distances, such as artillery shells which may have a target 15 km distant, you have to adjust for the spin of the Earth as well. This spin is equivalent to 1000 mph (1800 km/h) at the Equator.
You might care to do the sums for a target say 10 km north of you at the Equator.
A1. Because In the air the arow flys down abit so it would hit the target egsact
What else can I help you with?
If you want to hit a target with a throne or propelled object you must aim where?
You should aim slightly above the target, taking into account factors like distance, wind speed, and gravitational pull. The goal is to anticipate the trajectory of the thrown object so that it reaches the target accurately.
Where should the center of pressure be located in relationship to the center of gravity?

What type of energy does a hammer use?
A hammer uses mechanical energy, which is a combination of potential energy (from its position above the target) and kinetic energy (from its motion when swung).
Where is the adult's center of mass?
The center of mass in adults is typically located around the lower abdomen or slightly above the navel. This point represents the average position of the body's mass and can vary depending on individual body composition.
A bomber drops a bomb vertically over the target why it misses the target give scientific reason?
a bomber does not drops its bomb vertically above the target because when the bomb is released its motion becomes projectile motion in which horizontal component remains constant and vertical component changes throughout the motion therefore it does not achieve its target
When a rifle fires at a distant target where should the barrel be pointing?
Towards and ABOVE the target. Gravity will cause the bullet to drop, so point of aim must be above the target.
Why is Florida a target for earthquakes?
it is a target for earthquakes because it is on a fault line and the epicenter is right above that
Why are satellite dishes in the Northern Hemisphere pointed south and in the Southern Hemisphere there pointed north?
Satellite dishes in the Northern Hemisphere are pointed south to align with geostationary satellites above the equator, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they are pointed north for the same reason. This alignment ensures optimal reception and transmission of satellite signals.
What is point blank range?
Point blank is any distance at which a pointed firearm is reasonably sure to hit a target in a vital area. This can range from a contact shot to several yards away for some handguns, to more than 300 yards for some rifles. In exterior ballistics, the term is used to describe a range zone in which the bullet does not deviate more than a specific distance above or below the line of sight/point of aim, ensuring that the bullet will hit a specific target radius when aimed at the center of the target. For example, if the target radius is 3 inches, point blank range is any distance where the bullet does not go more than 3 inches above or below the point of aim/line of sight. The term is frequently used to describe contact shots where the muzzle of the barrel actually touches the target, or close contact shots where the muzzle is very close, within a couple feet of the target -- however the more correct terms for these distances are contact or close contact, not point blank.
What is distance-to-target concept?
The farther away, depending on the weapon, the higher above the target one must aim.

How do you be a good marksman?
you need a lot of practice, always aim a little above the Bulls-eye, with a moving target shoot where the target is heading, just before the target passes the cross hairs of the gun or bow depending on the type or weapon used and the speed of the target........ Sources: True knowledge, i used to shoot crows at my grandfathers farm with a Carbine repeater rifle...... hope that helped! -Flareshot! :)

It is probably the Star of David, a six-pointed star which is a Jewish symbol.
Why is the shooter aim slightly above the target?
Shooters aim slightly above the target to compensate for the downward trajectory of the bullet due to gravity. This technique is known as adjusting for bullet drop and ensures that the bullet will hit the target accurately at longer distances.
