Freely Falling Bodies - General Physics Lesson

Chad's Prep via YouTube

Overview

Explore the physics of freely falling bodies in this 24-minute lesson. Delve into the concept of constant acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface, with a value of 9.8m/s^2. Learn how free fall motion applies kinematics in one dimension with constant acceleration, utilizing the four physics equations introduced for uniform acceleration. Work through various free fall motion problems, solving for displacement, final velocity, and time to gain comprehensive exposure to this topic. The lesson covers an introduction, gravity and free fall concepts, and multiple problem-solving examples with solutions.
