Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do you calculate height in freefall?
- To calculate the height of free fall use the formula H = v₀t + (1/2)gt², where v₀ is the initial velocity, t is the time of fall and g is the gravitational acceleration.
How high is a 2 second free fall?
- To calculate the height of 2 seconds free fall, we use the formula H = v₀t + (1/2)gt², where v₀ is the initial velocity, t is the time of fall, and g is the gravitational acceleration:
H = 0[m/s]*2[s] + (1/2)*9.81[m/s²]*2²[sec] = 19.613 [m]
What do you mean by the free fall?
- Free fall, in terms of Newtonian physics, applies to the motion of an object where gravity is the only force acting upon it.
