Calculate the speed of a falling object

Calculate the arrival speed of a free falling object without initial speed on Earth. The friction force of the air is considered negligible for this calculation. Rounded to 1,000,000th

Complete the information below:

mètres

Arrival speed

m/s
km/h

Info

In Newtonian physics, free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it. In the context of general relativity, where gravitation is reduced to a space-time curvature, a body in free fall has no force acting on it.

An object in the technical sense of the term "free fall" may not necessarily be falling down in the usual sense of the term. An object moving upwards would not normally be considered to be falling, but if it is subject to the force of gravity only, it is said to be in free fall.
