You can any of several formulae for constant acceleration, found in any physics textbook. Acceleration due to gravity, near the Earth's surface, is about 9.8 meters/second2.

What is constant for freely falling body?

The acceleration due to gravity is constant for a freely falling body. This means that the object will experience a constant acceleration of 9.81 m/s^2 (on Earth) in the downward direction, regardless of its mass. This allows us to predict the motion of the object using equations of motion.


Problems and solution of freely falling bodies?

Some problems with freely falling bodies include air resistance affecting the acceleration and different initial conditions of objects leading to varied outcomes. Solutions can involve ignoring air resistance for simplicity or accounting for it in calculations, as well as using proper equations to calculate the motion accurately based on the initial conditions provided.


What is freely body?

A freely body is the body which is freely falling under the force of gravity i.e. an acceleration of 9.8 m/s2


Where does the law of gravity operate?

Freely falling bodies


What are the factors affecting freely falling bodies?

force and gravity


Does an object that is freely falling have mass?

Yes, an object freely falling still has mass. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, and it remains constant regardless of the object's motion. The force of gravity acting on the object is what causes it to fall.


What is the direction of the acceleration of a freely falling body?

9.8 m/s2


How do you spell freely?

That is the correct spelling of "freely" (without restriction).


What is a freely falling projectile?

A freely falling projectile is an object that is only acted upon by gravity, moving through the air in a parabolic path while falling towards the ground. It does not have any initial horizontal force or acceleration other than gravity acting upon it.


The sumof the kinetic and potential energies of a freely falling body is?

The sum of the kinetic and potential energies of a freely falling body is constant and equal to the total mechanical energy. This is a result of the conservation of energy principle, where the body's potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it falls, keeping the total energy constant.


What is the effect of mass of a freely falling body on the gravitational accelaeration?

None whatsoever.


Does the velocity of an object increase when its falling freely in a vacuum?

It accelerates at a higher rate
