at the spot of the kick the 20
Yes. If a field goal is attempted prior to fourth down and the snap is bad, the ball is not kicked, and the offense keeps possession of the ball, the field goal may be attempted on the next down.
it is a touch back and the ball go out to the 20 yeard line
I believe this IS allowed in the NFL so long as the ball leaves the kicker's foot before crossing the line of scrimmage. I can't recall though ever seeing this type of kick DONE in an NFL game. ---- A field goal is attempted when the ball is placed on the ground for the kicker to kick or when the ball is dropped to the ground and kicked once it touches the ground and starts its bounce back up. In other words, the ball must have touched the ground or is touching the ground when the kick is attempted for the attempt to be considered a 'field goal attempt'. A punt occurs when a kicker kicks the ball before it has touched the ground. No points can be scored by a punt. So the answer to the question, as I understand it, is no. No. If a punted ball travels through the uprights, no points are scored. The ball has to make contact with the ground before it's kicked to score points, either by placekick or dropkick.
He dropped the ball.
I dropped a ball
Who knows and who cares
In football, field position is where the football is located in relation to the goal line. In other words, field position is where the offense will line up for the next play. For example, there is "good" field position for the offense after running the ball back on a kickoff, if they get past the 30 yard line. Field position is also important on attempted field goals. If the ball is close to the goal line and in the center of the field, that is considered good field position.
From Apollo By the Numbers (see related links for URL) "Before reentering the LM, the CDR dropped a golf ball onto the surface. Using the head of a "6-iron" attached to the handle of the contingency sample collector, he attempted to strike the ball but struck mostly soil and barely moved the ball. The second swing sent the ball a few feet to the right. He dropped a second ball which he hit into a crater about 50 feet away."
The higher the height the ball is dropped from, the higher the height it will bounce to.
yes as long as the ball is put out of play to start the inning
The factors that affect the bounce of a dropped ball include...... the height from which it is dropped; the force applied to it, if any, when dropped; the acceleration of gravity, which is different depending upon what planet you're on ; the elasticity of the ball; the density of the atmosphere, which affects "air resistance"; and the rigidity and elasticity of the surface on which the ball bounces.
Yes - the greater the height an item dropped the resulting bounce is higher
