Nia stands on a hilltop holding a lightweight frisbee. Xolani stands at the bottom of the hill. Nia throws the frisbee to Xolani. Taking into account the effect of gravity, where should Xolani expect the frisbee to land in relation to the hilltop's horizontal level? Make your response very short.
Gravity will cause the frisbee to descend as it travels through the air. Therefore, Xolani should expect the frisbee to land lower than the hilltop's horizontal level, even if it was thrown in a straight line. The actual landing spot will depend on the strength of the throw, the angle of the throw, any wind conditions, and the frisbee's aerodynamics, but gravity ensures it will be below the level from which Nia threw it.
