Oh, dude, a horizontal distance is like the measurement between two points along the horizon. It's like how far something is from side to side, you know? So, if you're trying to figure out how wide your room is, you'd be measuring that horizontal distance. Cool, right?

FranWell, darling, a horizontal distance is the measurement between two points along the horizon in a straight line. It's basically how far apart two things are when you're looking straight ahead, no need to tilt your head or squint your eyes. So, next time you're lost in the wilderness, just remember to measure that horizontal distance and you might just find your way out.

What is the horizontal distance between called?
It is called the displacement in the horizontal direction.
When coordinates of two geographical points are known and we calculate the distance between them Is the calculated distance the horizontal distance or the actual distance?
The horizontal distance. Points of latitude and longitude can't account for elevation.
Can a distance versus time graph ever show a horizontal line?
if the speed is zero then the distance versus time line will be horizontal
What is the vertical distance from 9 to 135?
On a horizontal number line, the distance is 0!
When you graph the motion of an object you put what on the horizontal and the what on the vertical axis?
Time on horizontal, Distance on Vertical
What is the horizontal distance formula?
The answer depends on the context: If you have a distance vector of magnitude V, that is inclined at an angle q to the horizontal, then the horizontal distance is V*cos(q).

What is the word for the horizontal distance a projectile travels?
The horizontal distance a projectile travels is called range.
At what angle from a horizontal should a weapon be fired to achieve minimum distance traveled by the projectile?
The weapon should be fired at a 45-degree angle from the horizontal to achieve the minimum distance traveled by the projectile. This angle maximizes the range (horizontal distance) of the projectile by balancing the vertical and horizontal components of its velocity. At any other angle, the total distance traveled would be greater.
What is the horizontal distance traveled by a projectile?
The horizontal distance traveled by a projectile is determined by the initial velocity of the projectile, the angle at which it was launched, and the time of flight. It can be calculated using the equation: horizontal distance = (initial velocity * time * cosine of launch angle).
A road climbs 30 feet as you travel a horizontal distance of 500 feet. What is the best estimate of how much longer the road distance is than the horizontal distance?
1.079 ins
If you keep the velocity of projection constant and change the angle of projection from 75 to 45 what will happen to the horizontal distance the projectile travels?
The horizontal distance will be doubled.
What is the ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance?
It is a measure of the average gradient or slope.
What is the vertical distance from 9 to 135?
On a horizontal number line, the distance is 0!
In a distance vs time graph if the line is perfectly horizontal what does that mean about the velocity of the object?
horizontal
