Multiple Choice

A bullet is aimed at a target on the wall a distance L away from the firing position.Because of gravity, the bullet strikes the wall a distance $\Delta$ y below the mark as suggested in the figure. Note: The drawing is not to scale. If the distance L was half as large and the bullet had the same initial velocity, how would $\Delta$ y be affected?

• A)(\(\Delta\)y will double.)
• B)(\(\Delta\)y will be half as large.)
• C)(\(\Delta\)y will be four times larger.)
• D)(\(\Delta\)y will be one fourth as large.)
• E)(\(\Delta\)y is not possible to determine unless numerical values are given for the distances.)
