who said that at a given location on the Earth a in the absence of air resistance, all object fall with the same constant acceleration
Galileo Galilei
a form of constant acceleration
gravitational force
gravity in m/s²
9.8m/s²
gravity in ft/s²
32ft/s²
2 conditions for free fall
presence of gravity
absence of air resistance
directions of freefall
up
down
velocity at the top of free fall motion
0m/s
relationship of velocity and acceleration when moving up
v = (+)
a = (-)
relationship of velocity and acceleration when moving down
v = (-)
a = (+)
relationship of velocity and acceleration when at the top
v = 0m/s
a = 9.8m/s²
when does acceleration due to gravity vary extremely little
latitude
elevation on the Earth’s surface
what kind of quantity is acceleration due to gravity
vector quantity
direction of gravity
downward towards the center of the Earth
the force of friction or drag acting on an object in a direction opposing its motion as it moves through air
air resistance
the time required for the object to reach the maximum height equals the time for it to return from its maximum height to its starting point
time symmetry
at any displacement above the point of release, the speed of the body during the upward trip equals the speed during the downward trip
speed symmetry
