A bullet fired parallel to the gound, over flat ground, and a bullet dropped at the same time from same height will hit the ground at a time so close to each other as to be the same.

Can a bullet fired straight up in the air kill someone on the ground when it comes back down?

Yes, a bullet fired straight up in the air can be lethal when it falls back down to the ground. The force of gravity causes the bullet to accelerate as it falls, potentially reaching a lethal velocity. This phenomenon is known as a "stray bullet" injury.


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.


How is a javelin throw measured if does not stick into the ground?

If a javelin does not stick into the ground, the throw is measured from the point where it first strikes the ground to the nearest edge of the curve made by the javelin. This method ensures a fair measurement of the distance thrown, even if the javelin does not stick into the ground.

How do they measure the distance a javelin is thrown?

The distance a javelin is thrown is measured from the point where the javelin first strikes the ground to the nearest mark made by the point of the javelin that remains in the ground. The measurement is then taken in a straight line from the first mark to the throwing line.
