Depends on the launch angle ..............................as stated
Believe what you wish
Yeah I fully understand why you leaving, it is because you are being proved wrong.
I just have better things to do here. with interesting people

Don't waste your time.
There is more than enough evidence to justify the fact that Hamas has launched a wide array of missiles with varying capabilities that have penetrated Israeli airspace all over the country.
If someone wants to question the validity of a photo regarding one errant missile that landed in a field, so be it. It's irrelevant to the larger issue at hand regarding Israel's security, which is constantly in danger of being breached along the Gaza border.
I've stopped wasting my time
I have 9 years of being here to back me up, and I have a personal stalker finally.

First of all he posted this picture with an emotional story as a rocket that landed in a field that his son was working in on another thread. He said hamas nearly killed his son, turned out the picture was posted online over 2 weeks before the story occurred as a joke and then he used it to solicit an emotional response out of posters again on this thread. So as long as it is pro-Israeli, lying is ok with you?
He posted a pic that was forwarded to him. That doesn't make him a liar.

How would they achieve their distance when shot straight up? Unless they where fired in the same field cody, basic physics. You wanted to use them, now they are being used.
A parabolic path is the path followed by a projectile; that is, an object that is only acted on by gravity. The projectile has an initial velocity, either horizontal or upward at an angle. If it were to start out going straight up, it would go straight down, too, so that wouldn't be much of a parabola; it would be squished into a straight line. It would be the same way if it started out going straight down, or if we simply dropped it, so we'll really be looking at the parabolic paths followed by projectiles with some initial velocity.

To spread more disingenuous pics?
That is a qassam 1 rocket with a range of 5km and that is being generous.
A makeshift rocket like that is not burning fuel all the way to the point of impact, only to the highest point of its travel. It is not a cruise missile.
Your cutesy little lawn dart debunk was an epic FAIL. lol

The propellant burns for around 1 second, powering the rocket upwards, at an angle, so that after the burn ceases the rocket follows a parabolic path under the influence of gravity, to hit the ground a predictable distance from its launch point. ( assuming a roughly standard energy input from the propellant slug and a repeatable launch angle)
It does not fall straight down

I am very curious on something after doing the thread I did on the Hamas rockets, their sizes and their capabilities.
How did you come to the conclusion that was a Qassam-1 Rocket? The Q-1 is 60mm in diameter. I checked out of curiosity, and the short edge of my credit card here is wider that the 60mm of the Q-1 rocket. (60mm = 2.36 Inches)
Does that rocket look just a hair over 2 inches in diameter? I'm guessing it's closer to the Qassam-2 at 150mm and an equivalent of 5.9 inches. I could still be estimating a bit low, since there isn't anything of an absolute known size within the photo for comparison. Your certainty to use it as a point to disprove another suggests you did more than take a guess tho?
After all, a 1 vs. a 2 makes the difference of 1lb of nose weight vs. over 10lbs to make it nose heavy. A considerable factor in descent angle and ability for a dud or misfire to penetrate upon hitting a field.

You shoot something at an angle, no matter if it runs out of fuel or not it stays on its trajectory. It does not stop and fall dead out of the sky. An absolute massive fail on the basics of physics on this thread.
