Two bodies fall freely from different heights in a vacuum. They share the same:

Answer: acceleration.

  • A acceleration
  • B landing velocity
  • C time of fall
  • D momentum

Correct answer: A. acceleration

Explanation: In free fall every body has the same acceleration g, regardless of mass or height.

tvuvTΔtΔvslope = aarea = displacement (s)

On a velocity-time graph for uniform acceleration, the slope of the line gives the acceleration and the shaded area under the line gives the displacement.

Concept context

Equations of motion, projectile motion, relative velocity. Foundation of all mechanics.
