In answer to your question, it depends on how high up it is when it is dropped and then it will fall at a little over 32' per second, per second.

Didn’t Mythbusters do an episode on firing a bullet straight up?

 

[Annihilator]

I think someone has been in home confinement too long....

if that was for me I’ve actually been working this week managing a crew cleaning the frame and engine build lines.
Unfortunately I’ll be off next since Ford is totally shutting down. Not a bad decision since the truck plant employs close to 9,000 employees.
I’ll enjoy the week with my lady.

Yeah so didn't Biden with a shotgun on his balcony!

Yeah well he’s an idiot.
However even for a Democratic I’m impressed how Governor Beshear in Kentucky is handling himself and this situation.
Very professional and level headed.
