Hey Cube, as long as the ball is fired in a horizontal direction, the time taken to hit the ground is (and must be) exactly the same as a ball being dropped from the same height !!!!!
The acceleration factor is academic as long as that acceleration is once again, starting in a horizontal direction.
Sorry mate, I like your style and all that but you need to resit your A level Physics :)

Yup, this I now know, after taking this discussion into work over coffee at 8:10 this morning. BTW the guys at work say F&$K you very much for messing with their heads. Actuly they said it to me but I thought I'd share:D

Looks like I'll have to resit my A level again, just as well I failed it first time:(

Gave up on momentum and that at 'O' level though, (Shows age).

I await Hotpoint's reply with baited breath :)
Robbo
Did I?

thought I'd got it wrong, or was that the density/inertia one I posted?

Rule to self, never get involved in religious, physics, or effects of thermonuclear warfare on fruit fly populations when I'm not totally hammered :D

well actually manike.......nah

it's been 15 years since I did stuff on genetic manipulation of Fruit Fly populations to study "evolution" in action.

So if you don't mind and in the interests of sanity and Budda's skull I'll decline.

;) :D

Hmmm Simon, if I didn't know any better, I might think you were looking to intellectually bully people with that drosophila solicitation !!!!
