2.5 Freely Falling Bodies
Most familiar example of motion with (nearly)constant acceleration is that of a body fallingunder the influence of the earths gravitationalattraction.
To discuss this concept further, we use anidealized model of which we neglect the effects ofthe air, the earths rotation, and the decrease ofacceleration with increasing altitude. We call itfree fall.
The constant acceleration of a freely falling bodyis called the acceleration due to gravity and isdenoted by the letterg.

2.5 Freely Falling Bodies
We use the approximate value ofgat or near theearths surface:
g= 9.8 m/s2 = 980 cm/s2 = 32 ft/s2
Becausegis the magnitude of a vector quantity, it
is always a positive number.

Example 2.6 A freely-falling coin
A one-euro coin isdropped from the
Leaning Tower of Pisa.
It starts from rest and
falls freely. Compute itsposition and velocity
after 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 s.

Example 2.6 (SOLN)
Identify:"Falls freely" means "has a constant acceleration due
to gravity," so we can use the constant-acceleration
equations to determine our target variables.
Set Up:We take the origin O at the starting point, the
coordinate axis as vertical, and the upward direction
as positive. Because the coordinate axis is vertical,
let's call the coordinateyinstead ofx. We replace allthexsin the constant-acceleration equations byys.
The initial coordinatey0and the initial velocity 0yare
both zero.

Example 2.6 (SOLN)
Set Up:The acceleration is downward (in negativey-direction),
so ay = g= 9.8 m/s2. (Remember that, by defn,gitself
is always positive.) Hence our target variables are the
values ofyand yat the 3 given times. To find these,we use Eqns. 2.12 and 2.8 withxreplaced byy.

Example 2.6 (SOLN)
Execute:When t= 1.0 s,y= (4.9 m/s2)(1.0 s)2 = 4.9m and
y= (9.8 m/s2)(1.0 s) = 9.8 m/s; after 1 s, the coin is
4.9 m below the origin (yis negative) and has a
downward velocity ( yis negative) with magnitude9.8 m/s. The position and velocity at 2.0 s and 3.0 s
are found in the same way.
Evaluate:
All our answers for yare negative because we chose
the positivey-axis to pt upward. But we could just as
well have chosen the positivey-axis to pt downward.

Example 2.6 (SOLN)
Evaluate:In that case the acceleration would have been ay = +g
and all our answers for y would have been positive.
Either choice of axis is fine; just make sure that you
state your choice explicitly in your solution and confirmthat the acceleration has the correct sign.

Example 2.7 Up and down motion in free fall
You throw a ball vertically upward from the roof of atall building. The ball leaves your hand at a pt even
with the roof railing with an upward speed of 15.0 m/s;
the ball is then in free fall. On its way back down, it just
misses the railing. At the location of the building,g=9.80 m/s2.
Find (a) the position and velocity of the ball 1.00 s and
4.00 s after leaving your hand; (b) the velocity when
the ball is 5.00 m above the railing; (c) the maximumheight reached and the time at which it is reached; and
(d) the acceleration of the ball when it is at its
maximum height.

Example 2.7 (SOLN)
Identify:The words "free fall" in the statement of the problem
mean that the acceleration is constant and due to
gravity. Our target variables are position [in parts (a)
and (c)], velocity [in parts (a) and (b)], and acceleration[in part (d)].
Set Up:
In the figure, the downward path is displaced a little to
the right of its actual position for clarity. Take the originat the roof railing, at the pt where the ball leaves your
hand, and take the positive direction to be upward.

Example 2.7 (SOLN)
Set Up:
First, let's collect our data. The initial positiony0is
zero. The initial velocity 0yis +15.0 m/s, and the
acceleration is ay= g= 9.80 m/s2. We'll again use
Eqns. 2.12 and 2.8 to find the position and velocity,respectively, as functions of time. In part (b) we're
asked to find the velocity at a certainposition rather
than at a certain time, so it will also be convenient to
use Eqn. (2.13) for that part.

Execute:
The ball is 10.1 m above the origin (yis positive), and
it is moving upward ( yis positive) with a speed of 5.2
m/s. This is less than the initial speed of 15.0 m/s, as
expected. When t= 4.00 s, the equations foryand yas functions of time tgive
The ball has passed its highest pt and is 18.4 m below
the origin (yis negative). It has a downwardvelocity( yis negative) with magnitude 24.2 m/s. This speed
is greater than the initial speed, as we should expect
for pts below the ball's launching point.

y= +5.00 m, so
We get two values of y: 1 positive and 1
negative. As shown in figure, the ball
passes this pt twice, once on the wayup and again on the way down. The
velocity on the way up is +11.3 m/s,
and on the way down it is 11.3 m/s.

when it reaches the highest pt, y = 0. The maximum

Notice that with the first way of finding the maximum
height, it's not necessary to find the time first.
(d) CAUTION: It's a common misconception that at thehighest pt of the motion the velocity is zero andthe
acceleration is zero. If this were so, once the ball
reached the highest point it would hang there in mid-
air forever!

(d) To see why, remember that acceleration is the rate
of change of velocity. If the acceleration were zero at
the highest point, the ball's velocity would no longer
change, and once the ball was instantaneously at restit would remain at rest forever. The truth of the matter
is that at the highest point, the acceleration is still ay=
g= 9.80 m/s2, the same value as when the ball is
moving up and when it's moving down. The ball stopsfor an instant at the highest pt, but its velocity is
continuously changing, from positive values through
zero to negative values.

A useful way to check any motion problem is to draw
the graphs of position versus time and velocity versus
time. Figure shows these graphs for the situation in
this problem. Note thatthe y-tgraph has a
constant negative slope.
This means that the
acceleration is negative(downward) on the way
up, at the highest pt,
and on the way down.

Which is the right answer? The key qn to ask is, "Are
these answers reasonable?" The 2nd answer,t= 0.30 s, is not; it refers to a time 0.30 s before the
ball left your hand! The correct answer is t= +3.36 s.
The ball is 5.00 m below the railing 3.36 s afterit

Evaluate:
Where did the erroneous "solution" t= 0.30 s comefrom? Remember that we began with Eqn. 2.12 with
ay= g, that is,y =y0+ 0yt+ 0.5(g)t2. This eqn has
built into it the assumption that acceleration is constantforallvalues oft, whether positive, negative, or zero.
Taken at face value, this eqn would tell us that the ball
had been moving upward in free fall ever since the
dawn of time; it eventually passes your hand aty= 0at the special instant we chose to call t= 0, then
continues in free fall.

Example 2.8 (SOLN)
Evaluate:
But anything that this equation describes happeningbefore t= 0 is pure fiction, since the ball went into free
fall only after leaving your hand at t= 0; the "solution"
t= 0.30 s is part of this fiction. You should repeat
these calculations to find the times at which the ball is
5.00 m above the origin (y= +5.00 m). The two
answers are t= +0.38 s and t= +2.68 s; these are
both positive values oft, and both refer to the realmotion of the ball after leaving your hand. The earlier
time is when the ball passes throughy= +5.00 m
moving upward, and the later time is when the ball
passes through this point moving downward.

Example 2.8 (SOLN)
Evaluate:
You should also solve for the times at whichy= +15.0 m. In this case, both solutions involve the
square root of a negative number, so there are no real
solutions. This makes sense; we found in part (c) of
Example 2.7 that the ball's maximum height is only
y= +11.5 m, so it never reachesy= +15.0 m. While a
quadratic equation such as Eqn. 2.12 always has 2
solutions, in some situations one or both of thesolutions will not be physically reasonable.

In many physical situations, position and velocity
are not known as functions of time, while
acceleration is.
How can we find the position and velocity from the
acceleration function ax(t)? First, we consider the graphical approach.

acceleration is not constantbut increases with time.

Total velocity change is represented graphically by
total area under the ax-tcurve between vertical lines
t1 and t2.
As tapproaches a limiting value, area under the

Concepts Summary
When a particle moves along a straight line, we
describe its position with respect to an origin ) bymeans of a coordinate such asx.
The particles average velocity av-x

Instantaneous velocity xat any time tis equal to
the average velocity for the time interval from

The instantaneous acceleration ax is the limit ofaav-x as tgoes to zero, or the derivative of xwith
