No. When the ball falls, there are two forces acting on it; one is the gravitational force and the other air resistance, which is dependant on speed. At the point it is released. Its instantaneous speed is 0m/s The next second, 10m/s, (result of acceleration). the ball will undergo decreasing acceleration. Thus the distance it falls each second is different.

Which properties of a ball is conserved as it falls freely in a vacuum?

The mechanical energy of the ball is conserved as it falls freely in a vacuum, meaning the sum of its potential and kinetic energy remains constant. Additionally, the total momentum of the ball is conserved during its free fall.


Why a leaf and ball does not fall freely at same time?

They would fall in same time in a vacuum, but if air is present the ball falls faster due to high air resistance on the leaf


How much work does the force of gravity do on a 5.45-kg bowling ball that falls a distance of 0.755m?

41.1j


How many meters will a 20kg ball starting from rest fall freely in one second?

9.8 meters if you are on the planet Earth. Weight does not matter.


If a player from first to second runs into the base before the ball gets there but the baseman reaches for the ball and knocks the runner off the base and falls on him then tags him is he out?

no


A softball is dropped off of the side of a building As the ball continues to fall freely the kinetic energy of the ball?

increases while potential energy decreases. This is because the ball is losing height and gaining speed as it falls due to the force of gravity acting upon it.


If a ball stopped on the edge of a pocket falls in the pocket after another shot is played what is the status of that ball?

If the ball went in the pocket during the second shot, then it was sunk on that shot just as if it had been hit down by another ball.


What type of energy does a ball have at the top of its arc?

The potential energy that gathered as the ball was ascending rapidly converts to kinectic energy as the ball falls downwards, at a rate of 9.801 meters/second squared.


A ball is dropped off a ledge How far does it fall in the second second?

It all depends on the weight of the ball but if a tennis ball was thrown it would travel 2 1/2M in 2 seconds but cannot be calculated like this because the further the ball falls the more speed it gains. However there is a trick to this question because the 2nd second is only one second itself. making the answer 1M and 10CM !


From height of 8mts a ball fell down and each time it bounces half the distance backwhat will be the distance traveled?

The total distance traveled by the ball when it reaches the ground is 24 meters. The ball travels 8 meters as it falls, and then bounces back half the distance (4 meters) and continues this pattern until it reaches the ground.


How far will a rubber ball fall in ten seconds?

The distance a rubber ball falls in 10 seconds will depend on the height from which it is dropped and the acceleration due to gravity. On Earth, neglecting air resistance, the general equation to calculate the distance fallen is: distance = 0.5 * acceleration due to gravity * time^2.
