Class 10 Science | Equation of motion for free fall

Science and Technology, Grade 10 · Unit 7

Equation of motion for free fall

v = u + gt · Dropped and thrown up

By the end of this lesson you can

✏️

Write the three free fall equations

➕

Choose the sign of g

🌉

Find a height from a time of fall

🏏

Solve a ball thrown upward

Same equations, new letters

🚌Linear motion

v = u + at

v² = u² + 2as

s = ut + ½at²

🪨Free fall

v = u + gt

v² = u² + 2gh

h = ut + ½gt²
