∙ 13y agoThis is not a simple question and not enough information is provided to answer it. Among other things it depends upon the time it takes to reach terminal velocity and the terminal velocity depends on the various drag forces operating which in turn will depend on other variables such as initial height, wind speed, temperature, humidity, etc. You could calculate the velocity of any object falling in a vacuum if the acceleration due to gravitational force remains constant throughout the fall. v=v0+at where vo=initial velocity (probably zero if the object is initially at rest), a is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s2) at or near the surface of the earth, and t is the time of fall.

∙ 13y agoIf the velocity is constant then there is no acceleration. The acceleration is zero.
If the velocity is constant then there is no acceleration. The acceleration is zero.
As the drop distance increases, the velocity of an object in free fall also increases due to the acceleration of gravity. However, once the object reaches its terminal velocity, the velocity remains constant as the drag force upward balances the force of gravity pulling downward. At terminal velocity, the object stops accelerating and falls at a constant speed.
well, something has to be pushed by a constantly growing force. Constant acceleration would occur for example if you drop something in a vacuum. Dropping something in normal circumstances is a nearly constant acceleration too.
As a blood drop falls, it accelerates due to gravity until it reaches a point where the force of air resistance acting against it equals the force of gravity. At this point, the blood drop stops accelerating and falls at a constant speed known as its terminal velocity. The terminal velocity of a blood drop is determined by its size, shape, weight, and the density of the surrounding air.
Uniformly accelerated linear motion refers to an object moving in a straight line with a constant rate of acceleration. This means that the object's velocity is changing by the same amount over equal time intervals. The object's acceleration remains constant throughout the motion.
No, the acceleration is not the same for an object that is dropped and an object that is thrown. When an object is dropped, it experiences a constant acceleration due to gravity. When an object is thrown, its acceleration can vary depending on factors such as the initial velocity and direction.
No it does not, as a raindrop falls to earth it will gradually slow due to the changing terminal velocity. As a raindrop falls, water will evaporate from it causing the mass to decrease faster than the size and surface area. this will leave the raindrop with a higher surface area to mass ratio. Since air resistance is related to surface area and mass, the smaller raindrop will have more air resistance for its mass and will fall slower.
The velocity of the ball can be calculated using the formula v = at, where v is the velocity, a is the acceleration of gravity (3.7 m/s^2 on Mars), and t is the time the ball has been falling. Without knowing the time, we cannot determine the exact velocity of the ball.
If a train is stopped suddenly, its velocity will be zero since velocity is the rate of change of displacement over time. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity over time, so the train's acceleration could be non-zero during the stopping process.
The terminal velocity of a falling object on Earth is typically around 120 mph or 195 km/h for a human-sized object. Terminal velocity is the constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium through which it is falling prevents further acceleration.
Just the opposite. It will cause the acceleration to drop by 50%.
The object will have the same acceleration of 9.8 meters per second squared whether you drop it or throw it downward. The initial velocity from throwing it will affect its overall velocity as it falls, but the acceleration due to gravity remains constant.
