Aperegrine falcon dives at a pigeon. the falcon starts downward from rest with free-fall acceleration. if the pigeon is 56.0 m below the initial position of the falcon, how long does the falcon take to reach the pigeon? assume that the pigeon remains at rest.

3.4 s

Explanation

The first step is to write down everything we have then we can decide on the equation of linear motion to use

initial velocity = 0 m/s

acceleration = g = 9.81 m/s²

time (t)= ? that is what the question is asking.

So our equation of choice must have all these variables

unlike poles attract

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
