The formula for finding distance fallen given time of fall is: distance = (1/2) x gravity x (time of fall)^2. This formula assumes constant acceleration due to gravity.
Time of fall refers to the total amount of time that an object has been falling. It is typically measured in seconds.
No, the mass of the object does not affect the distance fallen. This formula only takes into account the acceleration due to gravity, which is constant for all objects regardless of their mass.
The value of gravity used in this formula is typically 9.8 meters per second squared (m/s^2), which is the average acceleration due to gravity on Earth.
Yes, this formula can be used for objects falling in a vacuum. As long as the acceleration due to gravity is constant, this formula will accurately calculate the distance fallen.
