It moves with a constant acceleration downwards. This means that its velocity is increasing at a constant rate.

What increases As an object falls freely in a vacuum?
the object's falling speed
Which properties of a ball is conserved as it falls freely in a vacuum?
massvolumedensitycolordiametercostweightshapetotal energy (potential + kinetic)
When an object falls freely the kinetic energy of the object will?
It will decrease if the object moves upward; decrease if the object moves downward.
What object falls faster a heavy object or a light object in a vacuum?
They both fall at the same rate. This is because they are both only acted upon by one force in the vacuum- gravitational acceleration. The mass, size or shape of the object do not influence the object's motion in a vacuum.
What is a freely falling projectile?
It is a projectile falling with an acceleration equal to that of free fall. (an object falling in a vacuum at the earth's surface)

the object's falling speed

Does the velocity of an object increase when its falling freely in a vacuum?
It accelerates at a higher rate
When an object falls freely the kinetic energy of the object will?
It will decrease if the object moves upward; decrease if the object moves downward.
Does the shape affect the way an object falls?
In air, yes. In vacuum, no.
When an object falls freely from a height?
it will go straight down because of gravity
What object falls faster a heavy object or a light object in a vacuum?
They both fall at the same rate. This is because they are both only acted upon by one force in the vacuum- gravitational acceleration. The mass, size or shape of the object do not influence the object's motion in a vacuum.
What is the appropriate equation for how fast an object freely falls from a position of rest for how far that object falls?
The equation for speed or fast is v=at and the distance is d=1/2 at2 the acceleration is 'a'.

What Is the appropiate aquation for how fast an object freely falls from a position of rest For how far that object falls?
for how fast an object falls, use v=gt. g stands for the acceleration of gravity- 9.8 m/s2 v stands for speed t stands for time for how far that object falls, use d=0.5gt2 d being distance
As an object freely falls downwards what increases?
Acceleration is constant.Speed increases linearly with time.Distance increases exponentially with time.
Does the speed stay same no matters what mass?
That depends on the situation. If the object is moving freely in a vacuum, the speed stays the same. If an object is accelerating, the speed change depends in part, on the mass of the object.
