Question

Suppose an object is in free fall. Each second the object falls

a.) the same distance as in the second before
b.) a larger distance than in the second before
c.) with the same instantaneous speed
d.) with the same average speed
e.) none of the above

Answer 1

The correct answer option is b) a larger distance than in the second before.

Step-by-step explanation:

Supposing that an object is in free fall, each second the object would fall a larger distance than in the second before.

In Physics, free fall is the state of motion of an object where the only force acting upon it is the force of gravity.

So for a object experiencing free fall, with every passing second it covers a larger distance in comparison to the previous second.
