As an object falls freely in a vacuum its?

It moves with a constant acceleration downwards. This means that its velocity is increasing at a constant rate.


As an object freely falls downwards what increases?

Acceleration is constant.Speed increases linearly with time.Distance increases exponentially with time.

When an object falls freely the kinetic energy of the object will?

It will decrease if the object moves upward; decrease if the object moves downward.


As an object falls towards the ground what happen to the kinetic energy of the object?

Does the shape affect the way an object falls?

In air, yes. In vacuum, no.


When an object falls freely from a height?

How is velocity of a falling object related to the length of time the object falls?

Velocity increases but not infinitely.


What object falls faster a heavy object or a light object in a vacuum?

They both fall at the same rate. This is because they are both only acted upon by one force in the vacuum- gravitational acceleration. The mass, size or shape of the object do not influence the object's motion in a vacuum.


What is the appropriate equation for how fast an object freely falls from a position of rest for how far that object falls?

The equation for speed or fast is v=at and the distance is d=1/2 at2 the acceleration is 'a'.
