<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> Unknown Principle

A sphere falls freely over certain distances. The falling time is measured and evaluated from diagrams. The acceleration due to gravity can be determined.

Benefits

Gravitation scrutinized
Find out how the velocity of a falling object increases
Didactical demonstration of the falling distances
Visualise the squared distance-time law
Steady set-up
All crucial parts directly engineered for this experiment

Tasks

To determine the functional relationship between height of fall and falling time.
To determine the acceleration due to gravity.

Learning objectives

Linear motion due to constant acceleration
Laws of falling bodies
Gravitational acceleration
