Seed 7 1

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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

dt= .64s

ds= 2 m

vAve=2 m/.64 s

=3.125 m/s

V0= o m/s

Vf=6.25 m/s

Dv=6.25 m/s

aAve= 6.25 m/s/ .64 s

= 9.76 m/s/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: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

ds= 5 m

dt= 1.05 s

vAve=4.76

v0=0

vf=9.52

dv=9.52

aAve=9.52m/s/ 1.05 s

=9.07 m/s/s

This is not consistent with 9.8 m/s/s acceleration of gravity

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

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

the first observation is consistent with 9.8 m/s/s
