Both magnitude and DIRECTION
For example,
• 12m East
• -2 miles
•9 meter north
• 8 miles up
From the change of GPE into KE. Conservation of energy tells us this.
8500 Hz and Longitudinal
Speed = frequency x wavelength
Speed of sound at 20 degrees Celsius is approximately 340 m/s
<h2>Right answer: acceleration due to gravity is always the same </h2><h2 />
According to the experiments done and currently verified, in vacuum (this means there is not air or any fluid), all objects in free fall experience the same acceleration, which is <u>the acceleration of gravity</u>.
Now, in this case we are on Earth, so the gravity value is
Note the objects experience the acceleration of gravity regardless of their mass.
Nevertheless, on Earth we have air, hence <u>air resistance</u>, so the afirmation <em>"Free fall is a situation in which the only force acting upon an object is gravity" </em>is not completely true on Earth, unless the following condition is fulfiled:
If the air resistance is <u>too small</u> that we can approximate it to <u>zero</u> in the calculations, then in free fall the objects will accelerate downwards at
and hit the ground at approximately the same time.
