What acceleration does the force of earth's gravity peoduce

maksim [4K]

Near Earth's surface, gravitational acceleration is approximately 9.81 m/s2, which means that, ignoring the effects of air resistance, the speed of an object falling freely will increase by about 9.81 metres per second every second.

A 1.5 kg orange falls from a tree and hits the ground in 0.75s. What is the speed of the orange just before it hits the ground?

Olenka [21]

The final speed of the orange is 7.35 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the orange is a free fall motion, since there is only the force of gravity acting on it. Therefore, it is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration $g=9.8 m/s^2$ towards the ground. So we can use the following suvat equation:
