1) C. velocity
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity per unit time. In formulas:
where
is the change in velocity
is the time interval
Therefore, the correct answer is C. velocity.
2) A. 9.8m/s/s
Earth's gravity is a force, so it produces an acceleration on every object with mass located on the Earth's surface. This acceleration can be calculated, as it is given by the formula
where
is the gravitational constant
is the Earth's mass
is the Earth's radius
By substituting these numbers into the formula, one can find that the acceleration due to Earth's gravity is .
