On mars the rock that fall from rest in 6.5 s with an acceleration due to gravity of 3.77 m/s² would far a distance of: 79.64125 m
The free fall formula and the procedure we will use is:
h = (g * t²)/2
Where:
- g = acceleration due to gravity
- t = time
- h = height traveled
Information of the problem:
- g = 3.77 m/s²
- t = 6.5 s
- h =?
Applying final height formula we get:
h = (g * t²)/2
h = (3.77 m/s² * (6.5 s)²)/2
h = (3.77 m/s² * 42.25 s²)/2
h = 159.2525 m/2
h = 79.64125 m
What is free fall?
It is when the object or mobile falls from a height (h) with a positive acceleration equal to the gravity, describing a vertical rectilinear travel.
