Best Answer

well, it depends on your height, weight, age, and the height of the ramp

but for a 10 year old - 1.587 seconds

15yr old - 1.55

20yr old - 1.26

30yrs - 1.005

37 - 1.001

45 - 0.98

50 - 0.5

You drop a ball from a cliff it lands 4 seconds later what is the balls average speed during the 1st second it is in free fall?

The basic equation for average velocity is distance over time. However, if the velocity is changing uniformly, as it is in free fall, you can use initial velocity plus final velocity divided by two. That makes this problem easy. In free fall the object accelerates at 9.8 m/ss. That means every second it picks up 9.8 m/s of speed. So if is dropped from rest, then one second later its speed will be 9.8 m/s. Its average speed during that time is then initial velocity = 0 plus final velocity = 9.8 divided by 2, to get ; 4.9 m/s.


Does the speed of free fall affected by the density of the object?

No. When an object is in free fall it has a downward force (it's mass) and an opposite, upward force of air resistance.

What does free fall mean in Newtonian physics?

Free fall in Newtonian physics is when a body has reached terminal velocity and so cannot speed up any more. It is therefore just falling at a set pace and will not reduce or increase that speed.


Why can you only calculate a stone's average speed during its fall?

That is just not true! If you can calculate its average speed you should be able to calculate its speed at any point in time during its flight, including its final velocity.


If an object is in free fall after each second how does the object fall?

The speed of an object in free fall near the earth's surface is always 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second morethan it was one second earlier.
