More critically, what would be the direction of such a force?annamal said:If we throw a ball with initial velocity v0, and the ball progresses in a projectile motion, ignoring air resistance, will there be a force in the x direction? If so, what is that force in the x direction's value mathematically?
That's not much of a "throw". You are just releasing the ball, which will fall straight down.annamal said:If we throw a ball with initial velocity v0
The initial velocity of a ball is directly related to the force applied to it. The greater the initial velocity, the greater the force needed to achieve that velocity.
Air resistance acts in the opposite direction of the ball's motion and can decrease the force on the ball. This is why a ball thrown in a vacuum will travel farther than a ball thrown in the presence of air.
Yes, the force needed to throw a heavier ball with the same initial velocity will be greater than the force needed to throw a lighter ball. This is due to the greater mass of the heavier ball.
Yes, the force on a ball can change after it has been thrown due to external factors such as air resistance, gravity, and collisions with other objects.
The angle of release can affect the force on a thrown ball. A ball thrown at a higher angle will have a greater force in the vertical direction due to the force of gravity, while a ball thrown at a lower angle will have a greater force in the horizontal direction.
