What would happen if you kicked a ball on the moon?

There is no air resistance on the moon to slow the ball's travel. The faster one hits a golf ball, the farther it moves as no fluid resists it. As for making a ball leaving the moon altogether, well, a human truly couldn't. The moon's gravity is weaker than Earth's, but still quite strong.

What will happen if we kick a ball in space?

Or if you have kicked the ball from ISS (International Space Station) it will fall back to the earth and air in front of the ball(object) will get compressed quickly. When the gas is compressed the temperature rises , Thus the football will burn completely.

How much force do you need to kick someone to the moon?

You'd need someone to be accelerated from 0 m/s to 11,000 m/s (more or less). If the average person is 80kg, and the duration of the kicking process is 1 second, you get: This is about 200,000 pounds of force being exerted consistently for 1 second.

Can you throw a rock off the moon?

Angling the Throw

Even if all other conditions were identical to those on Earth, this alone would be enough to send it farther, but the lack of atmosphere and reduced gravity would contribute even more distance. To get the maximum horizontal distance, you would have to throw the rock at a 45-degree angle.

Can you jump off the moon?

Although you can jump very high on the moon, you'll be happy to know that there's no need to worry about jumping all the way off into space. In fact, you'd need to be going very fast – more than 2 kilometres per second – to escape from the moon's surface.

How far would a 300 yard drive go on the moon?

McIlroy regularly drives golf balls over 300 yards (274 meters) at speeds of over 180mph and at a pitch angle of 15 degrees. But just how far would his shots travel if one of the Majors took place on the moon? Dr Sarzi said: “Without air friction McIlroy's typical drive would go further out to some 330 meters.

Can you punch someone in zero gravity?

Zero gravity combat sounds fun, but it may be quite painful. The first punch might, because the assailant can't brace against the ground, so some of the momentum of his fist will be wasted pushing his body backwards.

Which of Newton's laws of motion best explains why you should wear a seat belt?

Seat belts

When the car crashes, there is no unbalanced force acting on the person, so they continue forward (Newton's First Law). The person moves against the seat belt, exerting a force on it. The seat belt then exerts a force back on the person (Newton's Third Law).

Was football played on the moon?

Alan Shepard, an astronaut from the Apollo 14 mission, who was sent to the moon with two more crew members in 1971, has tried and succeeded in batting a golf ball on the moon. We don't really know how far his ball reached.

What will happen to a football in space?

Answer: In deep space, far enough away from large objects like stars and planets that gravity may be neglected, a thrown ball will travel in a straight line and the person throwing the ball will also travel in a straight line in the opposite direction.

How will planets move if there is no gravity in the universe?

Dialing down the scalar field to zero everywhere would essentially flatten the universe. Objects would no longer be drawn toward each other, because there would be no sloping surface for them to fall down. Instead, they would fly off in whatever direction gravity was keeping them from going.

Is it possible to fight in space?

As of 2022, no actual warfare is known to have taken place in space, though a number of tests and demonstrations have been performed. International treaties are in place that attempt to regulate conflicts in space and limit the installation of space weapon systems, especially nuclear weapons.

What happens if you throw a rock in space?

Now, the answer to your question: Yes, it will eventually stop, because gravity does not cease to exist in space, as derived by the formula for gravity, which employs two values, the Mass of the object and the Distance of the measurable object from another object.

How high can you jump on the moon?

On the moon you can jump 9 feet (2.7 meters) in the air from a standing position compared to just 1.5 feet (0.5 m) on Earth. Near Jupiter, the most massive planet, you'd only achieve 6 inches, while on Martian moon Phobos, a jump would launch you straight out into space.

How fast could you throw a baseball on the moon?

There is almost no atmosphere on the Moon. This means that there is no drag force to reduce the horizontal speed of a baseball pitched there. So a 90 mph fastball will still be moving 90 mph when it crosses home plate on the Moon.
