Question
if a bullet is fired from a high power rifle at the exact time a duplicate bullet is dropped by hand near the barrel of the rifle, then the fired bullet will reach the ground first. true false
Brief Explanations
In the absence of air - resistance, the vertical motion of both bullets is governed by the same gravitational acceleration. The fired bullet has a horizontal velocity component, but this does not affect its vertical motion. Both bullets start with an initial vertical velocity of zero and fall the same vertical distance under the influence of gravity.
