Quick questions for any physicists out there:
1. A bullet fired from a gun on earth, as soon as it leaves the gun barrel, is acted on by two forces: gravity and air-resistance, correct?
2. On a planet with significantly greater gravity than earth, the effects of gravity will be greater, causing the bullet to fall faster, correct?
3. Assuming my fictional planet has an atmosphere identical in chemical composition to earth's, what would the effects - if any - of heightened gravity be on resistance?
Thanks!
