Free FallWhy does an object fall to the ground

when dropped?GRAVITY

Gravity pulls objects towards the Earth at an acceleration 9.8 meters/sec/sec

(m/s2).

Free Fall: How Fast Elapsed time – the time that has

passed since the beginning of the fall.

In free fall, an object accelerates at a rate of 10 m per second every second

Free Fall: How FastTo calculate velocity in free fall:velocity = acceleration X time

orv=gt

Remember: g= acceleration due to gravity

Free Fall: How Far

How fast something falls is different from how far it has fallen

Free-Fall: How Far?

To calculate distance fallen:distance=1/2g X time 2

or d=1/2gt2

Elephant VS FeatherWith no other

resistance, they both fall with the

SAME ACCELERATION:10 m/sec/sec

But we all know the elephant would land first. Why?

Answer:

AIR RESISTANCE

Air resistance alters the motion of falling objects by adding additional forces.
