neglecting air resistance,

distance = 1/2 gt^2 where g = acceleration of gravity = 9./8 m/sec/sec

70 = 1/2 (9.8) t^2

14.28 = t^2

t = square root 14.28 = 3.78 seconds

When will the ball hit the ground if dropped at 443 meters high?

The time it takes for a ball to hit the ground when dropped from a height can be calculated using the equation: t = √(2h/g), where h is the height (443 meters) and g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s²). Solving for t gives a time of approximately 9 seconds.


When Rae dropped a bowling ball from a height of 8 meters At which distance above the ground was the ball most likely moving at the greatest speed?

Still accelerating til it hits earth. ====================================== The height from which she dropped the ball is irrelevant. In any case, the ball was most likely moving at the greatest speed just as it hit the ground. The answer to the question is: zero.


How does the height a boucny ball is dropped from effect the height it bounces to?

The higher the ball is dropped from, the higher it will bounce back. This is due to potential energy converting to kinetic energy upon impact with the ground, propelling the ball higher when dropped from greater heights. Ultimately, the bounce height depends on factors like gravity, air resistance, and the material of the ball.


Which has more kinetic energy a ball dropped from a height of 2m or a same ball dropped at 4m which has more kinetic energy just before it hits the ground?

The ball dropped from 4m height has more kinetic energy just before it hits the ground because it has a higher velocity due to falling from a greater height. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to both mass and the square of velocity, so the ball dropped from 4m height will have more kinetic energy than the one dropped from 2m height.


Is the height of a ball's bounce affected by the height from which the ball is dropped dependent and independent variable?

The height from which the ball is dropped is the independent variable, as it is what is being manipulated. The height of the ball's bounce is the dependent variable, as it is what is being measured and is affected by the height from which the ball is dropped.


What will hit the ground first a 1 pound steel ball or a 5 pound steel ball?

If dropped from the same height, they will hit the ground at the same time.


What will hit the ground first a bowling ball or an apple?

Assuming both were dropped from the same height above ground, in a vacuum both would hit the ground at the same time. In a significant atmosphere (e.g. average ground-level on Earch) the bowling ball would hit the ground first.


If a ball is dropped from a height of 100m each time it hits the ground it bounces 3 5ths of the height it fell How far will the ball have traveled in the 5th bounce?

Would a bowling ball and a penny hit the ground at the same time if dropped from an equal height?

Yes

What is the velocity of a ball that has a 3.03 second hit to the ground?

If it was thrown horizontally or dropped, and hit the ground 3.03 seconds later, then it hit the ground moving at a speed of 29.694 meters (97.42-ft) per second. If it was tossed at any angle not horizontal, and hit the ground 3.03 seconds later, we need to know the direction it was launched, in order to calculate the speed with which it hit the ground.
