You are exploring a planet and drop a small rock from the edge of a cliff. In coordinates where the +y direction is downward and neglecting air resistance, the vertical displacement of an object released from rest is given by y − y0 = 1/2gplanett2, where gplanet is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet. You measure t in seconds for several values of y − y0 in meters and plot your data with t2 on the vertical axis and y − y0 on the horizontal axis. Your data is fit closely by a straight line that has slope 0.300 s2/m. Based on your data, what is the value of gplanet?
