Will a ball drop rest reach the ground quicker than the one lunched from the same height but with and initial horizontal velocity?
No. What counts in this case is the vertical component of the velocity, and the initial vertical velocity is zero, one way or another.
The staircase rises 52° from the ground and a vertical distance of 12 yards. How much horizontal distance does the staircase cover Round to the nearest tenth?
9.4 yards i think
What is motion perpendicular to the ground?
Vertical motion is the motion that is perpendicular to the ground.
How many miles in a vertical mile?
0. Since a mile is a measure of distance along the ground. However if this question was just phased poorly there are 5280 feet in a mile of distance along the ground.
A soccer ball is kicked at a 45 degree angle at the top of its path is its acceleration entirely horizontal or vertical or a combination of both?
At the top of it path or anywhere else the Earth's gravity accelerates the ball downward. Regardless what the horizontal mothion is (disregarding air resistance), there are no accelerations after the kick. A ball kicked straight up to the same height will hit the ground at the same time as a ball kicked at 45 degrees.
What part of a vector are the horizontal and vertical parts of the vector?
Its either reality based (vertical is up-down, horizontal is ground distance) or it's purely arbitrary.
The of a vector are the horizontal and vertical parts of the vector.?
Its either reality based (vertical is up-down, horizontal is ground distance) or it's purely arbitrary.
Give the 4 difference between horizontal and vertical centering?
Horizontal Alignment includes a straight path, curves, or deviation in a horizontal direction. Vertical Alignment includes vertical curves and gradients on the ground. But it is difficult to change the alignment once the road is constructed, so care has to be taken in finalizing the alignment.
A bullet fired horizontally over level ground hits the ground in 0.5 seconds If it had been fired with twice the speed in the same direction it would have hit the ground when?
Assuming no affects from air and a smooth geography, both bullets would fall at the same rate of 9.81 m/s^2 toward earth, and hit the ground simultaneously. You have to look at the bullet's velocity as having a horizontal and vertical velocity vectors. The vertical velocity vector is independent from that of the horizontal. The horizontal vector would be the speed at which the bullet is fired, and the vertical vector is the speed at which the bullet falls due to gravity.
What is horizontal length?
How far or long something is from one end to the other. Vertical length is height.from the ground to the top of a structure or other thing.
What is the difference between corm and rhizome?
Corms have thick, vertical, underground stems Rhizomes have horizontal stems lying along, or just under the ground.
The ramp rises 20° from the ground and a vertical distance of 30 inches. How much horizontal distance does the ramp cover Round to the nearest tenth?
82.4 in
When during a jump is your speed zero?
Your vertical speed is zero when you're at the highest point of your jump. After that, itbegins to grow again, but in the downward direction. Your vertical speed is the samewhen you hit the ground as it was when you left the ground, but in the opposite direction.Your horizontal speed doesn't change. It's the same when you hit the ground as it waswhen you left the ground, and in the same direction.
How does the creep meter work?
A creep meter is a wire stretched across a fault to measure the horizontal movement from the ground.
How do a horizontal line look like?
a line that goes straight up and down is a horizontal line a vertical line is straight up and down vertical like raising hand up or down to answer questions horizontal like like holding a hot dog you would not hold a hot dog up and down you would hold it side to side
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.
How does a creep-meter works?
A Creep Meter uses a wire stretched across a fault to measure horizontal movement of the ground.
