x axis = time, y axis = distance, plot values of s, when t = say 0 to 10, step 1

If time is the variable, and distance the dependent, you should have been given a figure for acceleration (g), without which, you cant plot the graph.

Acceleration due to earths gravity (g) at earths surface radius
is generally taken as = 9.82 metres per second / per second.

Use: s = (u*t) + (0.5 * g * t2)

where:
s = distance
u = initial velocity
g = acceleration due to gravity (9.82 (m/s)/s)
t = elapsed time

∙ 12y agoWeight = (mass) x (local acceleration of gravity). Mass = (weight) / (local acceleration of gravity) If you know the weight and the local acceleration of gravity, you can calculate the mass. Anywhere on or near the surface of the earth, the local acceleration of gravity is about 9.82 meters per second2 . As an example, an object with a weight of 9.82 newtons has a mass of one kilogram.
Power is equal to Force times velocity; P=Fv. You are given the 'speed', which I assume to be velocity. You also have acceleration. In order to find F, you need first to find the mass, which you can calculate from the weight, Fg, by dividing by the acceleration due to gravity, 9.8. You then have the mass. From here, multiply mass times acceleration times the velocity.
Its acceleration is always the same - the acceleration of gravity at 32 ft/sec/sec - no matter what distance it is during drop, until it hits the ground.
Force or weight Force= mass X acceleration gravity is an acceleration (9.8m/s2) Weight = mass X acceleration due to gravity
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]
The acceleration of gravity can be calculated using the formula a = 9.81 m/s^2, where "a" represents the acceleration due to gravity. This value is a constant for objects falling in Earth's gravitational field.
The distance a rubber ball falls in 10 seconds will depend on the height from which it is dropped and the acceleration due to gravity. On Earth, neglecting air resistance, the general equation to calculate the distance fallen is: distance = 0.5 * acceleration due to gravity * time^2.
The only factor needed to calculate change in velocity due to acceleration of gravity is time. The formula to calculate the change in velocity is: change in velocity = acceleration due to gravity * time.
The factors influencing acceleration due to gravity are the mass of the object and the distance from the center of the Earth. Objects with more mass experience a stronger gravitational force, which leads to a higher acceleration due to gravity. Additionally, the acceleration due to gravity decreases as the distance between the object and the center of the Earth increases.
The acceleration due to gravity decreases with distance from the center of the Earth. Using the formula for gravitational acceleration (g) at a distance (r) from the center of the Earth: ( g' = \frac{G \cdot M}{(r+a)^2} ), where a is the radius of the Earth and G is the gravitational constant, you can calculate the distance above the surface of the Earth at which the acceleration due to gravity reduces by 36 percent.
acceleration caused by gravity is not the same because it varies from the mass and the distance betwwen the two objects
What is the only factor needed to calculate change in velocity due to acceleration of gravity 9.8 ms?
If a force acts in a direction which passes through the centre of gravity of the object then it will impart no rotational acceleration; only linear acceleration.
Weight = (mass) x (local acceleration of gravity). Mass = (weight) / (local acceleration of gravity) If you know the weight and the local acceleration of gravity, you can calculate the mass. Anywhere on or near the surface of the earth, the local acceleration of gravity is about 9.82 meters per second2 . As an example, an object with a weight of 9.82 newtons has a mass of one kilogram.
You can calculate the force of a falling object using the formula: Force = mass x acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is approximately 9.81 m/s^2. Simply multiply the mass of the object by 9.81 to find the force of the object falling.
The force of gravity on an object is determined by its mass and the acceleration due to gravity. The formula to calculate this force is: force of gravity = mass of the object × acceleration due to gravity. On Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.81 m/s^2.
