An object subjected to Earth's gravity of about 32.2 feet per second2 will fall 64.4 feet.
distance = 1/2 At2
velocity = At
At that point, they would be traveling about 44 miles per hour, which is less than terminal velocity of about 125 miles per hour, which means that it does not significantly matter how much the person weighs, because air friction does not really enter into the picture yet.
(4 meters/second)(40 seconds) = 160 meters.
depends on the mass of the stone, the shape of the stone, and the height dropped from. sorry dude.
Because this is a free fall questions, the equation d=1/2gt² can be used. Gravity is a given, 9.8 m/s² and the time is your 15 seconds of free fall. d=1/2(9.8m/s²)(15s)²= 1,102.5m. To find feet multiply 3.28084 to answer because that is how many feet are in a meter.
In order to come up with an answer, we have to impose a couple of rules: 1). we're trying this on the earth 2). we're ignoring the effects of air 3). it's not moving at the beginning of the 5 seconds ... that's when you drop it from your hand Then the rock falls 400 ft in five seconds. What's really interesting is that it doesn't matter how much it weighs. ALL rocks fall the same distance in 5 seconds.
4 x 170 miles = 680 miles
1,100 to 1,300 feet.
576 feet
It has been known since the 16th century that the mass of an object is irrelevant to how far it will fall. The main factor influencing the rate of fall is the shape of the object and, therefore, the air resistance (or buoyancy).
490 meters
78.46 meters (257.4 feet)
(4 meters/second)(40 seconds) = 160 meters.
depends on the mass of the stone, the shape of the stone, and the height dropped from. sorry dude.
The answer depends on:where it is falling (if on a space ship, the answer may be 0)the extent to which air resistance affects the fall.
170 miles
170 miles
about 170 miles
