Ignoring Air Resistance, on earth near the earths surface gravity applies a force on all bodies.

The acceleration the ball will experience is -9.8 meters per second per second (i.e. it will slow the ball down. When the ball then falls to the ground from the apogee of the throw it will continue to accelerate at 9.8 meters per second per second per second and will hit the ground at the same speed it left the ground originally.

So each second it will slow by 9.8 meters per second.

9.8 meters per second, (or 32.2 feet per second), if the experiment is carried out on or near the surface of the earth.

1.6 meters (5.25 feet) per second, if it's on or near the surface of the moon.

3.52 meters (11.5 feet) per second, if it's on or near the surface of Mars.

A baseball is hit straight up at an initial velocity of 100 meters per second. What will be the baseball's speed when it hits the ground?

I assume you hit it up from the ground level as well. From Conservation of Energy, it immediately follows that: * If there is no air resistance, when it hits the ground it will, once again, have a speed of 100 meters per second. * Since under usual circumstances there WILL BE air resistance, its speed will be less than 100 meters per second.


What happens to the distance you fall during each second?

If you fall from a very considerable height then initially the distance that you fall will increase with each second that you fall. However, air resistance increases markedly with speed and this causes your acceleration to decrease so that you reach a maximum speed (terminal velocity)

What is the speed of a 380 acp bullet falling straight down?

Falling, and not tumbling end over end, the bullet will accelerate (due to gravity) at 32 ft per second- per second- until it reaches the terminal velocity- limited by air resistance- around 300 mph. If tumbling end over end, more air resistance, less speed- about 225 mps MAXIMUM.
