Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A bullet fired from a rifle experiences a downward force due to gravity as soon as it leaves the barrel. The bullet will continue to experience this force throughout its flight, causing it to eventually fall to the ground. Air friction may affect the bullet's trajectory, but it does not cause it to fall.
