Golf balls do NOT fly farther in cold weather. Anyone who's played golf for several seasons can vouch. But here's the scientific proof.
A chart from the PGA Manual of Golf by Dr. Gary Wiren.
Carry Temp
224 95* F
222 85* F
220 75* F
216 65* F
214 55* F
205 45* F
186 35* F
Also, dry colder air is denser and heavier than hot air (which rises) - which causes more drag, reducing ball flight.
"Cold weather" is correct. "Cold" is an adjective used to describe the type of weather.
Temperature can affect a couple of different variables in a ball to alter the distance it will travel from an impact. For inflated balls, the temperature can change the air pressure inside the ball giving an over inflated effect if it was warmed, or and under inflated effect if it was cold. (Have you ever tried dribbling a basketball without enough air in it?) The amount of air pressure then is directly proportional to the temperature of the air inside.
when running in cold weather which of the following is not recommended for layering
the weather is cold all the time
It is a period of bad weather.
North America has both hot and cold weather. The farther north you go, the colder the winters are. The farther south you travel, the hotter the summers are.
i dunno. i tryed it will my own balls it worked surprisingly :) but dont use warm balls as they are very soft and sweaty :/
because they are made of powder-like.
yes, molecules are spread out during hot weather giving a baseball less resistence while traveling through the air. In cold weather, molecules and more dense, thus, making it harder for the baseball to travel. -Vic J
Wearing thermal underwear or layers, using hand warmers, or investing in heated clothing can help keep your body warm, including your testicles, in cold weather.
I would suggest a firmer golf ball. They tend to bounce further on frozen ground. Softer golf balls give less of an advantage than in the summer because they do not compress as much when in contact with the club during cold weather.
A football will typically travel faster in hot weather compared to cold weather. This is because the air molecules are more spread out in hot weather, reducing air resistance and allowing the ball to move more quickly through the air.
Sound travels farther in cold air compared to warm air because cold air is denser and has a lower speed of sound, allowing sound waves to propagate more efficiently and with less energy loss.
i don't know if the temperature of the baseball itself affects it's flight time, but i have noticed that balls do fly futher when the -air- is hot, as opposed to cold
it really depends on the weather conditions. you have to take both wind,rain and hardness of the ground into consideration how far a ball travels depends on how much the ball reacts off the face of the club, its called the trampoline effect. The harder you swing, the more the ball is compressed at impact and that translates into how fast it leaves the clubface or springs off the clubface. If you can't compress the ball it won't spring off the face so it won't go anywhere. That being said if its winter the ball is really hard and you can't compress it. A ball will travel the farthest on a warm sunny day. I am a PGA TOUR caddy so I really need to know this so I can club my player. If we play in the morning and its cool, we need to take a 1/2 club to sometimes a full club more.
because, balls like you.
