If you continue to ignore air friction, but allow for the curvature of the Earth ( so that the direction of gravity changes over the flight of the shell ), then the path is really an ellipse.

I say " at least " because the bullet might pass through the victim; in addition, at long range it will lose some momentum to air friction .-- Anonymous, July 15, 08 : 53 ( UTC ).

Fairings are a standard component of expendable launch vehicles, and they are always jettisoned as soon as possible after a rocket has climbed high enough for heating from air friction to no longer risk damaging the payload.

You and the car might need to use energy for other reasons different than the one you're thinking, such as replenishing energy lost due to air friction . talk ) 01 : 21, 8 June 2010 ( UTC)

Around 99 % of the energy loss in a freeswinging pendulum is due to air friction, so mounting a pendulum in a vacuum tank can increase the " Q ", and thus the accuracy, by a factor of 100.

Ruptures caused by parts tearing off and air friction generating heat as high as 3, 000 degrees will probably cause the pressurized modules to break loose and explode, creating a display of smoking, incandescent fragments plummeting through the sky.

Betting that the invisible aura around his body would be superior protection, the Flash seized Zoom and began to push him forward so fast that the intense air friction overwhelmed the coating and the resulting burns forced him to surrender.

I'm trying to make a simple projectile animation ( no air friction ) for illustration for a simple physics site and got that working but now I want to have a form to control the angle and amount of force.

Gershenfeld said, Such a forecast could have been accomplished with less effort by collating covers from popular science magazines . Gershenfeld criticizes Kaku for some surprising physics errors , such as ignoring air friction on sensory experience from reality.

As Cassidy, he wielded conventional firearms, sometimes loaded with explosive " micro-bombs . " As Banshee, he wore synthetic costuming designed to resist air friction, usually including underarm wings that helped him glide on air currents and his own sonic waves.
