Sneering_Viper Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) UPDATE: TWO CODES ARE GONE Hey guys I have 2 codes each for Xbox and PS4 for the tenno live sigil. IF YOU HAVE A PS4 OR XBOX account, but you are using PC in the forums, sorry but unless i see a PS4 or XBOX in your name, you only get the joy of solving the puzzle. Leave your answer to the question below and the first 2 people to get it right from each platform will get the codes. Think really hard as the answer you might think is right or google to find is right might not be right. I have 3 balls, A B and C. All balls are at the same height. A is thrown upwards, B is dropped and C is thrown downwards. My question is which ball will hit the ground with the highest speed. Have fun.

(PSN)Viggorrah Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I never was good with Physics. Ball A? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrStrongSemps Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 They should all hit the ground at the same speed, and same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyranitar Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 The question is rigged, you didn't specify the velocity of the throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orthus420 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 some questions .. 1. are all the balls being "letgo" at the same time? 2. when u say "upwards",'downwards" do u mean thrown into the air and on the ground? or do u mean the balls are on a table n just thrown upward the table instead of in the air?, 3. can adults find out why kids love cinnamon toast crunch?

(PSN)dr123kdd Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) over a short distance c but a over long distance form the ground then all 3 because they will reach terminal velocity Edited August 25, 2015 by (PS4)dr123kdd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrStrongSemps Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 The question is rigged, you didn't specify the velocity of the throw. Thats very true, im going to assume its the same throughout all, also assuming that they are thrown at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)G R A V O C Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) Check my second answer since you clarified conditions which changes the outcome Edited August 25, 2015 by (XB1)G R A V O C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANY speed. assume we are hovering at a random height. as for cinnamon toast, i love it too so sorry im biased Also,, the codes are only for PS4 and XBOX, so PC users GET NOTHING.

Okay based on that w/ same speed across the board, ball A will hit with the greatest speed, since it has the most time to accumate speed (air time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(XBOX)Grihaly Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 They all hit the ground at the same speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IggySnow Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 a random height gives 2 possible answers. If ball A is thrown upward at the same speed that ball C is thrown downward then Ball A and C will have the same velocity as they reach the ground. However! depending on the height of the balls initial orientation ether balls A and C will hit the ground at a higher speed, or all 3 balls will hit the ground at the same speed to to them having the same wind resistance which means they all have the same terminal velocity.

ToxicTroublermaker Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Are the codes not universal? And if so then why discriminate against PC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneering_Viper Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Are the codes not universal? And if so then why discriminate against PC? there are 4 codes, 2 for ps4 and 2 for xbox, i used the PC ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IggySnow Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 here a pic showing whats happening Ball A will have the same speed hitting the ground as ball C NO MATTER the height which they are thrown from. Ball B will have less speed hitting the ground in all circumstances. this is assuming that there is no air resistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Viggorrah Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Huh, so I was partially correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneering_Viper Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 its not that hard guys. Someone got the answer right and got a code. Three more codes to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)X1155752X Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I'd guess B, since the act of throwing a ball downwards would generate a fair amount of air friction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
