If you hit it while hanging (not too hard), presumably it will come loose and fly off. The damage will depend on how and where it lands.Stein said:Hi,
I was wondering under which circumstance does the Orange take the most damage?
If I hit it when it rests on a hard surface or if it is hanging from something free to move with the blow.
The force of hitting an orange while it's lying on a surface is typically greater than when it's hanging free. This is because when the orange is lying on a surface, the surface absorbs some of the force, resulting in a stronger impact on the orange.
When an orange is hit while lying on a surface, the force of the impact causes it to roll away. This is due to the shape of the orange, which is round and has a low center of gravity. The force applied to one side of the orange causes it to rotate and roll away.
Yes, the type of surface can affect the force of hitting an orange while it's lying on it. A harder surface, such as concrete, will result in a greater force, while a softer surface, like carpet, will absorb more of the force and result in a weaker impact on the orange.
Yes, hitting an orange while it's hanging free can cause it to change direction. This is due to the conservation of momentum, where the force of the impact causes the orange to move in the opposite direction.
Yes, there is a difference in the sound produced when hitting an orange while it's lying on a surface versus hanging free. When hitting an orange on a surface, the sound will be louder and more resonant due to the surface absorbing some of the impact force. When hitting an orange hanging free, the sound will be less pronounced and shorter in duration.
