Answers: What happens if you fire a gun backward from a moving car at the same speed as the bullet?

• physics experiments
• projectile motion
• relative velocity
• Nerf Rival XV-700

What it concludes

• Firing a Nerf ball backward from a car moving at 55 mph while the ball is also shot at 55 mph causes the ball to drop straight down to the ground.
• Humans can only jump at around 3 miles per hour upward.
• Falling in an elevator is survivable because elevators fall relatively slowly and compress air in front of them to cushion the fall.
