How are height distance and speed related?

Now, this is in very....basic. It also may not be 100% correct. The higher up you are, the more distance you fall. The more distance you fall, the faster you go. You peak at a certain speed, and will continue falling at that speed once it is reached. The max speed differs in the amount of weight falling. (Proven by an Egg falling, or a Feather falling.)


How fast is it falling when it hits the ground?

The velocity at impact depends on the height it was dropped from and whether there is any air resistance. In a vacuum or if air resistance is negligible, an object will fall at a constant acceleration (9.81 m/s^2 on Earth). To calculate the velocity at impact, you can use the formula v = sqrt(2gh), where v is velocity, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height.


Would a parachutist be considered a free falling object and why?

The falling of a parachutist without his parachute deployed will be quite fast. We can slow his decsent by putting a drag on the free fall with a parachute. The fall is no longer free of drag (friction).


How fast will a 2-kg ball fall from 2 meters high?

It will fall just as fast as an object of any other mass - assuming that air resistance is negligible. That is to say, if an object has a lot of surface area, it will fall slower due to air resistance.


How fast does a person free fall?

A person in free fall accelerates at a rate of 9.8 m/s^2 due to gravity. The average terminal velocity for a human in free fall is around 120 mph (193 km/h). However, this can vary depending on factors such as body position and air resistance.

How fast does a person fall after falling from a height of 40 feet?

The answer to that is 40-56 mph i quess


How fast does a person fall after falling from a height of 200 feet?

9.8 meters per second squared. So the longer they are in the air, they will fall faster by each second.


How fast does a person fall after falling from a height of 50 feet?

The speed at which a person falls after falling from a height of 50 feet can be calculated using the laws of physics. Ignoring air resistance, the person would be falling at a speed of approximately 33.2 feet per second when they hit the ground. This can be calculated using the equation v = sqrt(2gh), where v is the final velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity (32.2 ft/s^2), and h is the height (50 feet).


Why do the satellite not fall while revolving around the earth?

They do fall. But they're traveling fast enough so that the surface of the Earth falls away from them as fast as they are falling. Same thing that keeps the Earth from falling into the sun.


Why a person without a parachute falls fast than a person without a parachute falling from same height?

if there is no air then both will take same time.But due to presence of air person who is without parachute will take less time.

Who was the person who studied how fast objects fall?

Galileo


Why does satellites do not fall while resolving around the sun?

They don't fall because they're travelling too fast to fall. An orbit is technically a fall. An object orbits when it falls at the same rate as its forward movement, so while it's falling toward the earth, the earth is falling away from it below.


How long would it take to fall 15 stories?

This would depend on how fast you were falling. In my opinion, it wouldn't take long at all.


How fast can a person run before their legs fall apart?

About 27-30MPH


How fast in miles per hour would an object fall after 3 seconds?

At the end of 3 seconds, a falling object is falling at 65.8 mph faster than when it was released, ignoring air resistance.


What is the name of the condition of falling in love too fast?

There is none. you an never fall in love to fast! just be sure that you actually love him/her before you do anything drastic like going to bed with them or getting married...
