Warmup: Concept: PS-5.4 Acceleration due to gravity: “g”
Three stones are dropped from the top of a tall building: Stone A: 2.2kg Stone B: 6.7kg Stone C: 1.2kg Which stone will hit the ground: First? Second? Third?
Three stones are dropped from the top of a tall building: Stone A: 2.2kg Stone B: 6.7kg Stone C: 1.2kg Which stone will hit the ground: They will all hit the ground at the same time. Gravity causes all objects, regardless of mass, to accelerate downward at the same rate, 9.80m/s2
