A ball falls freely from rest at a height of 2 meters. Observations indicate that the ball reaches the ground in .64 seconds.

• Based on this information what is its acceleration?

answer/question/discussion: 3.125m/s

• Is this consistent with an observation which concludes that a ball dropped from a height of 5 meters reaches the ground in 1.05 seconds?

answer/question/discussion: yes

• Are these observations consistent with the accepted value of the acceleration of gravity, which is 9.8 m / s^2?

answer/question/discussion: yes

You need to show the details of your work. You don't explain how you got the acceleration on the first question, and don't explain the basis for your 'yes' answer.
