What causes objects to accelerate?
Gravity causes falling objects to accelerate.
What happens to the rate at which falling objects accelerate over time?
The rate of acceleration is constant.
When falling objects no longer accelerate?
A falling object no longer accelerates, due to friction in the atmosphere, when the friction buildup equals gravity's acceleration. This is called it's terminal velocity.
How fast do objects accelerate when falling to the ground?
When falling to the ground (or even just in the air), the acceleration of an object depends on the gravitational pull of the object it is falling towards. Here on earth, all things fall relative to the earth which causes an acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2
Do objects have equal acceleration?
no, most objects accelerate differently.
What causes objects to accelerate?
Gravity causes falling objects to accelerate.
How does gravity affect the veloctiy of falling objects?
The force of gravity will accelerate the falling objects towards itself.
Is it ok if falling objects are not exactly 9.8?
Objects in freefall only accelerate at 9.8m/s2 if air resistance is ignored. Because friction will gradually cause a falling object to reach terminal velocity, most objects won't accelerate at exactly 9.8m/s2.
What happens to the rate at which falling objects accelerate over time?
The rate of acceleration is constant.
Does gravity causes all falling objects to accelerate at the rate of 98?
The rate is 9.8m/sec
Gravity causes all falling objects to accelerate at a rate of 98 meters per seconds?
No
Whose scientific discoveries are the law of the pendulum and the fact that falling objects accelerate at fixed and predictable rates?
Galileo
What is a sentence for the word accelerate?
He would wildly accelerate his car when the traffic light turned green. Gravity causes falling objects to accelerate as they move toward the Earth. Living in a foreign country can accelerate the speed at which you learn the native language.
What is the effect of gravity - on the motion of falling objects - that are not inhibited by air resistance?
All objects, under these conditions, will accelerate at the same rate as they fall. (Note: Just the fact that you can call it a "falling" object is one of the effects of gravity.)
Objects that do not accelerate?
All objects accelerate if the forces acting on them are not balanced.
Why do objects accelerate on ramps?
Objects will accelerate if there is a net force acting on them.
When falling objects no longer accelerate?
A falling object no longer accelerates, due to friction in the atmosphere, when the friction buildup equals gravity's acceleration. This is called it's terminal velocity.
