Question

near the surface of the earth, objects in free fall (but not terminal velocity) experience a. constant distance. b. constant acceleration. c. constant speed. d. constant velocity.

Answer 1

B- constant acceleration

Answer 2

Answer;

B. constant acceleration.

Explanation;

• Free fall is the type of motion of a body or an object when only gravity is acting on it.
• All objects undergo free fall on the earth surface at the same rate irrespective of their mass. This is because the gravitational field on the surface of the earth 9.8 N/kg, causes and acceleration equivalent to 9.8 m/s/s of any object in free fall motion.
• Therefore, the acceleration of any freely falling object near the surface of the earth is 9.8 m/s².
