Freefall is the motion that an object undergoes when the only force acting on the object is the force of gravity.Typically the vertical direction is labelled by the y coordinate and the constant acceleration equations of motion are simply modified(i.e. just replace a with y).v = vo + aty – Yo = vot + ať?y – Yo = } (vo + v) t v? = v3 + 2a (y – yo)Which of the following statements about freefall motion are correct?If an object in freefall has an downwards velocity of 10 m/s then the acceleration of gravity in the constant acceleration equations of motion isa = -g = -9.8 m/s².If an object in freefall has an upwards velocity of 10 m/s then the acceleration of gravity in the constant acceleration equations of motion isa = -g = -9.8 m/s².If the Y-coordinate system is chosen to point upwards (i.e. Y increases when moving up), then the acceleration of gravity in the constantacceleration equations of motion is a = -g= -9.8 m/s².For an object to be in freefall then it must be falling, i.e. moving in a direction towards the Earth.

The second and third statements are correct. Statement1: If downward velocity is taken as positive,…
