Free fall equation (vacuum)

modeling the fall of point-like objects by the laws of classical mechanics, neglecting aerodynamic drag and assuming a uniform gravitational field

Description

Moreover, assuming the falling object to be a point mass.

Formula(s) and Quantities

$\begin{matrix} \dot{x} & = & v \\ \dot{v} & = & - g \end{matrix}$
$g$ represents gravitational acceleration
$t$ represents time
$v$ represents free fall velocity
$x$ represents free fall height
