Free fall is the motion of an object falling solely under gravity, with no air resistance. Near Earth's surface, all objects accelerate at g = 9.81 m/s² regardless of mass — a fact Galileo demonstrated and Einstein explained through general relativity.
Guida passo passo
- 1Velocity at time t: v = g × t (starting from rest)
- 2Distance fallen: d = ½ × g × t²
- 3Time to fall distance d: t = √(2d / g)
- 4Velocity after falling height h: v = √(2gh)

Risultato
3.03 seconds · velocity 29.7 m/s (107 km/h)
t=√(2×45/9.81)=3.03s; v=9.81×3.03=29.7
