Best Answer

32.2 ft/s2 on earth

A second after jumping out of a plane your speed will be 32.2 feet per second. After the second second, it will be 64.4 feet per second. After three seconds your speed will be 96.6 feet per second. Each second 32.2 ft/sec will be added until acted on by another force such as a parachute, air friction (terminal velocity) or the ground.

Terminal Velocity is about 61 ft/sec. it will be higher at higher altitudes since there is less air.

The force of gravity is equal to the mass x acceleration due to gravity

by the general Newtonian equation: F = MA

the acceleration due to earths gravity is 9.8 m/s2. Your mass will be dependent on the object specified in the equation but should be in kilograms so that you solve for the appropriate units of F, Newtons ( kg*m/s2)

The magnitude of the external force is the sum of all forces acting on an object. This does not include a direction, however, as magnitude is not a vector.

Spacial size or quantity.

It's just another word for how big something is, usually reserved for earthquakes and (the brightness of) stars.

How do friction and gravity relate?

The magnitude of friction is proportional to the magnitude of the normal force which is proportional to the magnitude of gravity(The magnitude of the normal force is indirectly proportional to the magnitude of gravity.). The magnitude of the normal force, N, compared to gravity, G, on angle z, is: N=cos(z)*G On a flat surface. N=G The coefficient of friction, whether static or kinetic, f is therefore: N=cos(z)*G*f


What is the magnitude of the tension in the cord?

Tension = mass(acceleration) + force of gravity Force of gravity equals mass times gravity (9.8m/s2)


Is the force of gravity is a vector?

Yes. It results in a force that has a magnitude and a direction, and this is the definition of a force vector.


Is mass the magnitude of the force due to gravity on an object?

No mass is not the magnitude of the force due to gravity on an object. Mass is the stuff of which the object is composed. The magnitude of the gravitational forces between the object and Earth ... or whatever planet the object happens to be on ... is the object's "weight".


What would happen to an object when normal force and force of gravity is applied?

It depends on the magnitude of the forces.


A force has both what?

A force is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
