g Generally the accepted value of acceleration due to gravity is 9.801 
as per the question the acceleration due to gravity is found to be 9.42
in an experiment performed.
the difference between the ideal and observed value is 0.381.
hence the error is -
=3.88735 percent
the error is not so high,so it can be accepted.
now we have to know why this occurs-the equation of time period of the simple pendulum is give as-![T=2\pi\sqrt[2]{l/g}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=T%3D2%5Cpi%5Csqrt%5B2%5D%7Bl%2Fg%7D)

As the experiment is done under air resistance,so it will affect to the time period.hence the time period will be more which in turn decreases the value of g.
if this experiment is done in a environment of zero air resistance,we will get the value of g which must be approximately equal to 9.801 
Acceleration = Change in Velocity / time
a = (v - u) / t
Where v = final velocity in m/s
u = initial velocity in m/s
t = time in seconds.
a = acceleration in m/s²
A proper record of the changes in velocity with the corresponding time would help find the acceleration.
If the resistance of the Air is ignored, we can use the theory given by Galileo in which he warned that the thermal velocity of a body in free fall was given by

Where
g = Gravitational acceleration
t = time
As we can see the speed of objects in free fall is indifferent to the position that is launched (as long as the resistance of the air is ignored) or its mass.
Both bodies will end with the same thermal speed.
Answer:
true
Explanation:
free fall is said to be the downward movement of an object under the force of gravity only

This is not balanced
