mathematical model for the fall of objects, neglecting aerodynamic drag and assuming a uniform gravitational field |
Statements
A free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it. Hence, we are neglecting the aerodynamic drag (vanishing drag coefficient and/or density of air) and assuming a uniform gravitational field.
