Q
Q: What is the acceleration of an object in free fall near the Earth's surface?
Solution:
The acceleration due to gravity near the Earth's surface is approximately 9.81 m/s².
Steps: 4
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that free fall means an object is falling under the influence of gravity only.
Step 2: Know that near the Earth's surface, gravity pulls objects downwards.
Step 3: Learn that the strength of this pull is measured as acceleration.
Step 4: Remember that the standard value for this acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.81 meters per second squared (m/s²).
