Question

When air resistance is ignored, every object accelerates at a rate of 9.8 m/s2. Describe what this means regarding the position and velocity of the object. What would the graphs for free fall look like?Justify your answer:

Answer 1

Constant acceleration, velocity varies linearly, position varies quadratically.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that acceleration is constant, the vertical velocity varies linearly and vertical position varias quadratically by applying the physical concepts of position, velocity and acceleration and the mathematical concepts of differentiation and integration.
