When a ball is dropped from the top of a 30 ft building what is the acceleration at 1 second?

Ignoring air resistance, the acceleration is constant, from the moment the ball
leaves the hand until the moment it hits the ground, regardless of the mass of
the ball or the height from which it's released.
It's 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 . That's the acceleration of gravity. (On Earth.)
The speed of a dropped object grows continuously. At the end of 1 second,
it's 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second.

A ball is dropped freely from rest If it travels a distance 53.9metres in the 6th second of its journey find its acceleration?
9.8
If 2 balls are dropped from different floors of a building which ball has greater acceleration?
The one that was dropped from the higher floor cause freefalling objects get faster and faster with more flight time
If a bowling ball and a Nerf ball dropped at the same time and height what would the acceleration be?
it would be 9.8 meter per second. anything that isn't subject to air resistance(like paper) will fall at this rate for this is the acceleration of gravity,
Why velocity is non zero when ball dropped to the ground?
The initial velocity of a dropped ball is zero in the y (up-down) direction. After it is dropped gravity causes an acceleration, which causes the velocity to increase. F = ma, The acceleration due to gravity creates a force on the mass of the ball.
Does mass determine the acceleration due to gravity?
The acceleration due to Gravity is constant at 32 feet per second per second, if you dropped a feather and a cannon ball in a vacuum they would fall at the same rate and hit the floor at he same time.
Ball is dropped from the top of a building One second later ball B is dropped from the same building as time progresses does the distance between them increase?
Yes.

A 15kg ball and a 25kg ball are dropped from rest what will be the acceleration of the heavier ball?
Same as the 15kg ball. 9.8m/sec^2.

The acceleration due to Gravity is constant at 32 feet per second per second, if you dropped a feather and a cannon ball in a vacuum they would fall at the same rate and hit the floor at he same time.
WHEN A BALL IS DRoPPED FROM A height its speed increases why?
Acceleration due to the force of gravity.
A ball is dropped from the top of an 80m building will the ball hit the round in 4 sec?
Yes.Neglecting air resistance, and using 9.8 m/s2 for the acceleration of gravity,80 meters works out to 4.041 seconds (rounded).
A ball is dropped off a cliff and reaches a speed of 29.4 meters per second after 3.0 s What is the balls average acceleration?
29.4/3=9.8m/s2
If air resistance can be neglected how does the acceleration of a ball that has been tossed straight upward compare with its acceleration if simply dropped?
The acceleration is the same, which is the acceleration due to gravity. About 10m/s^2
A ball is dropped and a ball of similar mass is fired which has greater acceleration?
If we disregard air resistance; they both have identical acceleration under gravity. If we take air resistance into account, then the mass that is fired will be de-accelerating slightly, so if you calculate the overall acceleration it will be slightly lower than the mass that is dropped.
