Would a ball dropped vs launched(horizontally) have the same force of impact? (same starting height)
I can't wrap my mind around this... I know there's no acceleration in the x-direction, yet I would imagine the launched object would have a greater force of impact. (negating the ball rolling after impact, etc)
Or in the end is it really F=MA for both...
