Is the vertical motion of a falling object dependent on the mass of the object?

Gravity's action on a falling body is dependent on the masses of both bodies and the difference between their centers. Typically the falling body's mass is negligible, being on orders of magnitude smaller than the larger body, and will not affect the acceleration to any measurable degree. So, typically the answer would be: No.

What is h 16t2 vt s?
This is the vertical motion model, used when solving for height that an object is dropped from, what height an object is at after so many seconds, what rate the object is falling at, and how many seconds have passed after dropping an object when it is at x height etc. etc. Most often used in Algebra 1 and 2.
What is the force that atcs in an opposite direction to the motion of a moving object?
Friction always acts in a direction opposing the motion of an object.
What is the definition of vertical velocity?
Vertical means up and down; so the vertical velocity is an indication of how quickly an object is rising or falling. If the object is moving at an angle (such as an airplane taking off or landing) then it would be more accurate to call it the vertical component of the object's velocity.
What motion of an object is falling when air resistance is negligible?
Free fall
What force opposes the downward motion of falling object?
Air resistance
In what way is the motion of a freely falling object different from the motion of the cart?
motion of free falling object does not have friction, while motion of the cart has force of friction
When an object is in motion in a circle it has?
Vertical Velocity
What is h 16t2 vt s?

What Is the motion of a falling object when the only force acting on it is gravity.?
downward motion
What is the force that atcs in an opposite direction to the motion of a moving object?
Friction always acts in a direction opposing the motion of an object.
When you graph the motion of an object you put what on the horizontal and the what on the vertical axis?
Time on horizontal, Distance on Vertical
Is acceleration greater when the object is thrown vertically or horizontally?
Acceleration is dependent on the initial velocity of how fast the object is leaving the projectile. The vertical acceleration is greater when the object is falling than when the object reaches the peak in height. However, if the object is thrown horizontally and there is no parabola in its shape then there is not as great of an acceleration.
What is the cumulative effect of the forces on the objects motion?
The falling object
How does it affect motion of a falling object?
it affects motion by friction a friction pull it down or up
