Going back to definitions, Velocity is change of distance with time; and acceleration is change in velocity with time. Initially, the velocity is zero, as is the acceleration, BUT the Force of Gravity attracts the falling mass, and causes velocity to appear. But the continued application of the Force of Gravity causes the velocity to increase. And as we know, increase in velocity is acceleration. [space for QED]
It depends if it is affected by air resistance or not. If not then all objects close to the surface of the Earth have an acceleration of 9.81ms^-2 in free fall. If it is affected by air resistance you need all sorts of more information to answer that question, like the drag coefficient of the air.
the final velocity assuming that the mass is falling and that air resistance can be ignored but it is acceleration not mass that is important (can be gravity) final velocity is = ( (starting velocity)2 x 2 x acceleration x height )0.5
it will increase
If air resistance can be ignored, the distance in meters is 4.9t2. Note that 4.9 is half the numerical value of Earth's acceleration (9.8 meters per second square).
Air resistance decreases the acceleration of a falling leaf from a tree. As the leaf falls, air resistance opposes its motion, slowing it down. This results in a lower acceleration compared to if the leaf were falling in a vacuum with no air resistance.
Decrease.
It reduces the acceleration of the falling object due to friction.
Acceleration remains constant during free fall at approximately 9.81 m/s^2, assuming no significant air resistance. This is due to the force of gravity acting on the falling object, resulting in a uniform acceleration towards the Earth.
Air resistance creates friction and slows a falling object.
The acceleration of a falling object near the Earth's surface is approximately 9.81 m/s^2, assuming air resistance is negligible. This acceleration is due to gravity and causes the object to increase its velocity by 9.81 m/s every second it falls.
The acceleration due to gravity on a falling object is approximately 9.81 m/s^2, assuming no air resistance. This acceleration causes the object to increase its velocity by 9.81 m/s each second it falls.
Air resistance causes friction and slows an object.
Air resistance applies a force opposite to the direction of motion of a falling object. This force opposes the force of gravity, reducing the net force acting on the object, and hence reducing its acceleration. As the object's speed increases, the air resistance force also increases, further hindering its acceleration.
As a falling object accelerates through air, its speed increases and air resistance increases. While gravity pulls the object down, we find that air resistance is trying to limit the object's speed. Air resistance reduces the acceleration of a falling object. It would accelerate faster if it was falling in a vacuum.
Only if it has enough wind resistance to cancel out gravity.
No, air resistance actually increases as you move faster. This is because the faster an object moves through the air, the more air particles it collides with per unit time, leading to a higher force of air resistance.
