It all depends on the weight of the ball but if a tennis ball was thrown it would travel 2 1/2M in 2 seconds but cannot be calculated like this because the further the ball falls the more speed it gains. However there is a trick to this question because the 2nd second is only one second itself. making the answer 1M and 10CM !
The mass is irrelevant. If the object is in free fall (that is, air resistance can be neglected), an object will fall 4.9 meters in one second.
Both will reach the ground at the same time if they were dropped at the same time in a vacuum. This is a well proven fact that the mass has no effect on the acceleration of an object in a free fall in a vacuum.
If two round objects roll down a hill, the one with the greater mass will roll faster. If they are dropped they will fall at the same rate.
Let v be the velocity when the ball is at 640 feets going downwards v = 48 feet /sec let the velocity with which it reaches the ground be u then, u2=v2+2gh g = acc due t ogravity in feet/sq.sec h = 640 feet the time taken to reach the ground = time to return to 640ft + the time to fall from there Time taken to get to the ground is 8 seconds. Final velocity is 208 feet per second downwards
The acceleration due to the earths gravitational field at the surface is on average about 9.8 m/s^2, or 9.8 meters per second per second. This means that every second you fall go 9.8 m/s faster. So if we ignore air-resistance we find that a rock dropped from rest will have a speed of 3s * 9.8 m/s^2 = 29,4 m/s.
Yes, a golf ball will fall when dropped on the Moon due to the presence of gravity. However, the acceleration of gravity on the Moon is weaker than on Earth, so the ball will fall more slowly.
The speed of an object in free fall increases by 9.8 m/s every second. Therefore, after 2 seconds of free fall, the speed of the ball will be 9.8 m/s * 2 seconds = 19.6 m/s.
An example of free fall due to gravity.
The second atomic bomb used in combat was dropped on Nagasaki.
A rock that is dropped, and a apple falling from a tree.Hold a ball in your hand, stretch out your arm, and drop the ball. As it is moving towards the ground, it is in free fall.
Both will fall at the same time in vacuum because there is no resistance.
Due to the force of gravity. The gravitational attraction between the Earth and the ball is what causes the ball to drop.
A ball just dropped is an example of free fall, where the only force acting on it is gravity causing it to accelerate downwards at a constant rate of 9.81 m/s^2.
No. Objects falling on Earth in a vacuum fall at an increasing speed of 32 feet per second per second and the same object dropped from the higher level will be traveling faster during the second half of its fall, thereby it will take less than twice the time required to fall half the distance.
increases
When a ball is dropped, it has gravitational potential energy that is converted to kinetic energy as it falls due to gravity. This kinetic energy increases as the ball gains speed during the fall.
When a hollow plastic ball and a solid metal ball is a dropped in a vacuum and gravity is the only force acting on the balls the balls will fall at the same rate. Being that this is a prediction answer may vary.
