How far can you throw a ball on the moon's surface who's gravity is 1/6 that of the Earth's?

Question

Assume you can throw a ball 40 m on the earth's surface.

Answer 1

Mathematically, on the moon you could now throw the ball 240m.

Scientifically, on the moon you could throw the ball 240m and farther. On the moon, their is only gravity bringing the ball to a stop. On Earth, gravity and friction of the air slows the ball down

Answer 2

You can use the range equation:
X=(Vo^2*sin2(theta))/g g=acceleration due to gravity(not negative)
As long as the initial velocity(Vo) and theta( a degree) are the same in both the earrth and moon throw, the ball will travel 6 times farther.

Answer 3

240 meters

Answer 4

You can throw it 6x as far... This applies to frisbees, too (if it's not too windy...)

Answer 5

240m on the moon. all u have to do is * by 6...... but asking in.... forget it.
