This is true when the object lands at the same height as it was thrown, but not necessarity if the two are different. You can think of the motion in two parts; it moves upward and it moves sideways. If you throw it at a high angle, it won't have much of the sideways motion and won't travel far. If you throw it at a low angle, you won't have much upward motion and it will hit the ground before travelling too far. Try playing with the following simulator.

If you were to travel through an angle of 8 degrees across the surface of the earth through how many kilometers would you have traveled?

It depends on your latitude. At the equator (0 degrees) a degree of longitude covers just over 111 km, so 8 degrees would be about 890 km. At 45 degrees of latitude, a degree of longitude covers just under 79 km, so 8 degress would be about 555 km. Check out the calculator in the related link. Enter the degrees of latitude and it gives the length of a degree at that point.


What is difference between nw and nnw heading?

The difference between NW (Northwest) and NNW (North-Northwest) headings lies in their specific compass bearings. NW corresponds to a direction of 315 degrees, while NNW points to 337.5 degrees. Essentially, NNW is slightly more northward than NW, making it a more precise direction. Both headings are used in navigation and meteorology to indicate wind or travel directions.


How do you calculate echolocation?

Echolocation is calculated by measuring the time it takes for sound waves to travel from the emitter to an object and back. This involves sending out a sound pulse, then recording the time until the echo returns. The distance to the object can be calculated using the formula: Distance = (Speed of Sound × Time) / 2, where the speed of sound in air is approximately 343 meters per second at room temperature. The division by two accounts for the round trip of the sound wave.

If object thrown vertically on moon will it travel farther than one thrown on earth?

Yes, because there is less gravity on the moon. Also, because there is no air friction on the Moon. However, a frisbee thrown on the Moon will not travel as far as one properly thrown on Earth, because the shape of the frisbee generates lift which will keep it flying farther. With no air on the Moon, a frisbee cannot "fly".


In the absence of air resistance at what other angle will a thrown ball go the same distance as one thrown at an angle of 75 degrees?

The answer is 45 degrees. If given the same velocity, and thrown at say...10 degrees, to the ground, then the distance it would travel is the same as the distance it would travel if it were thrown 80 degrees. Complementary angles end up at the same distance horizontally.


Is the following true or false an object that is dropped will hit the is ground before an object that is thrown horizontally from the same height?

True. Both objects, when released from the same height, will experience the same gravitational acceleration regardless of their horizontal motion. Therefore, the object that is dropped will hit the ground at the same time as the object thrown horizontally, assuming no air resistance. However, the dropped object will fall straight down, while the thrown object will travel horizontally as it falls.


Does different speed of two objects effect the time it takes to reach the ground?

If thrown horizontal from same height the faster object will travel farther horizontally, but time to fall is the same. If thrown straight up, the faster object will take longer to fall


What is the farthest a person can travel?

The farthest a person can travel is limited by the boundaries of space and time. Currently, the farthest humans have traveled from Earth is about 400,000 kilometers (approximately 248,000 miles) to the Moon during the Apollo missions. In theory, if we consider space travel, the Voyager 1 spacecraft, which is over 14 billion miles away from Earth, represents the farthest any human-made object has traveled. However, humans themselves remain confined to relatively close distances within our solar system.


What is farthest point south on the Earth's surface why?

The South Pole at 90°south. From that position it is only possible for you to travel northward, making it the farthest point south.


Why do objects that are thrown follow a curved path?

Objects that are thrown follow a curved path due to the influence of gravity and the initial forward velocity given to the object. Gravity pulls the object downward, causing it to accelerate, while the initial forward velocity allows the object to travel horizontally. The combination of these two forces results in the object following a curved trajectory known as a parabola.

Why does carotene travel farthest in chromatography of leaf pigments?

Carotene travels the farthest in chromatography of leaf pigments because it is the least soluble in the chromatography solvent. This means it interacts less with the solvent and more with the chromatography paper, allowing it to move further up the paper before the solvent front stops it.
