9.81 m/s2 is the acceleration of an object in free fall, responding only to gravity

with no other forces on it, on or near the Earth's surface ... otherwise known as

the acceleration of gravity.

It's always true on or near the surface of the Earth ... if you can provide those

conditions: No other forces except gravity acting on the falling object, including

no air resistance !

This measure, 9.81 m/s^2, is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth's surface. It is not always true as it can vary slightly depending on the location on Earth, altitude, and other factors.

What is the velocity of a car increases by 40 ms in 80 seconds. What is the acceleration of the car A. 0.5 ms2 B. 0.25 ms2 C. 120 ms2 D. 40 ms2?

The acceleration of the car can be calculated using the formula: acceleration = (change in velocity) / time. In this case, the change in velocity is 40 m/s and the time is 80 seconds. Therefore, acceleration = 40 m/s / 80 s = 0.5 m/s². So, the correct answer is A. 0.5 m/s².
