Which ball will reach the ground first if they are dropped at the same time from a height of 3 meter?

Which ball will reach the ground first if they are dropped at the same time from a height of 3 meter?

Therefore, when both objects are dropped from the same height and at the same time, the heavier object should hit the ground before the lighter one.

Which of the two balls will reach the ground first?

This includes changes to the object’s speed, direction, or state of rest. So, more the mass more will be the Inertia. Since ball A is heavier than ball B it is more difficult for the resistive forces to stop it’s motion which causes it to fall down first.

When dropped from a height in vacuum bodies of different size shape and mass fall at the same rate and reach the ground at the same time?

Originally Answered: if we drop different weights from same height which will fall first to ground? Both of the object will hit the ground at the same moment (if the air resistance is negligible). As both are released their velocities will be zero.

Which ball will hit the ground first?

So, back to the bowling ball and the feather: The reason the bowling ball reaches the ground first is because air resistance has a bigger impact on the feather as it falls. That air resistance slows the feather down while not having much of an impact at all on the bowling ball.

Which one will reach the ground first?

Heaver objects fall faster. If you drop a heavy and light object together, the heavy one will get to the ground first. This is trick question. I remember in physics that everything falls the same.

Which ball will drop first?

Who will drop first?

What hits the ground first rock or feather?

If you drop a feather and a rock at the same time, you know the rock will hit the ground first and the feather will fall much slower.

Which will hit the ground first feather or ball?

What will hit the ground first bowling ball or golf ball?

Well, ask yourself this question: which one is easier to move in the first place? The golf ball. So it takes more force to move the bowling ball. And the bowling ball is also the one gravity pulls on more.

Does the dropped ball hit the ground at the same time?

If the ball is thrown exactly horizontally, then it will hit the ground at the same time as the dropped one – but it will a lot further away from the thrower. Where you are going wrong is in assuming there is a horizontal force.

What is an example of dropping a ball from a height?

Here is the first classic example. This is a bowling ball and a basketball dropped from the same height. Normally, I hold these two balls up in a classroom and ask students which will hit the ground first. I never actually drop them because dropping a bowling ball on the ground from above your head might not be such a great idea.

What is the force that causes a ball to drop?

That is the only force that causes the ball to drop. The hand can no longer impart any force, as the ball has left it. As gravity is the only force in both cases, both balls will hit the ground at the same time. When you throw a ball, we are assuming that you are throwing it horizontally.

What happens when a ball is thrown horizontally?

These elaborations are interesting considerations, but the point of the original experiment is to demonstrate to a learner the independence of the dimensional axes. If the ball is thrown exactly horizontally, then it will hit the ground at the same time as the dropped one – but it will a lot further away from the thrower.
