Best Answer

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 meters per second2 downward.

1.6 seconds after falling from a branch near the surface of the Earth,

the apple's speed is 15.68 meters per second.

It's velocity is 15.68 meters per second downward.

The tree has to be really tall, since the apple falls 12.544 meters (about 41 feet)

in 1.6 seconds.

An apple falls from a tree and reaches the ground in 4 seconds with a velocity of 40m/s. What is the acceleration?

Using the acceleration formula, final acceleration is the final velocity minus the initial velocity over elapsed time. Final velocity you gave as 40m/s, and the initial velocity was zero (the apple was stationary on the tree), so the difference is 40 m/s. Divided by the time you gave, 4 s, this will be 10 m/sĀ²

Why is an apple not spinning around the earth and the moon not falling from a tree?

Velocity, velocity, velocity. Both a falling apple and the orbiting Moon are being attracted by the Earth's gravity. The apple is still being attracted even when it is on the ground. The difference is that the Moon is moving laterally, that is, its motion has a tangential velocity component that carries it "past the edge of the Earth" as it falls, so that it never reaches the ground. It also has very little friction moving through space to slow it down. So gravity, in trying to pull it down, keeps it from flying off into space, but can never bring it crashing down on Isaac Newton's head. ========== Besides the tree is a wee bit small to hold the moon!

What forces an apple falls from a tree branch?

There is a natural weak spot that develops in the ripened apple stalk that breaks and allows the apple to fall to the ground. This occurs in Autumn, or sometime prematurely, if there is a strong wind that shakes the apple free.
