What is the acceleration of free fall?
A stone is allowed to fall from the top of a tower 100 m high and at the same time another stone is projected vertically upwards from the ground with a velocity of 25 m/s. Calculate when and where the two stones will meet.
State whether the following statement is true or false :
A falling stone also attracts the earth.
What is the usual value of the acceleration due to gravity of earth ?
Explain why, a wide steel belt is provided over the wheels of an army tank.
A stone is thrown vertically upwards with initial velocity u reaches a height ‘h’ before coming down. Show that the time taken to go up is the same as the time taken to come down.
Solve the problem.
If the mass of a planet is eight times the mass of the Earth and its radius is twice the radius of the Earth, what will be the escape velocity for that planet?
A ball falls off a table and reaches the ground in 1 s. Assuming g=10 m/s2, calculate its speed on reaching the ground and the height of the table.

Which of the forces involved in dragging a heavy object on a smooth, horizontal surface, have the same magnitude?
- The horizontal applied force
- gravitational force
- reaction force in vertical direction
- force of friction
A force acts for 10 s on a stationary body of mass 100 kg, after which the force ceases to act. The body moves through a distance of 100 m in the next 5 s. Calculate : The acceleration produced by the force
A force causes an acceleration of 10 m s-2 in a body of mass 500 g. What acceleration will be caused by the same force in a body of mass 5 kg?
Define the term acceleration due to gravity? Write its S.I. unit.

What is escape velocity?
Explain why:
Objects fall to the earth.
What do you understand by the free fall?
The value of gravitational acceleration at the centre of earth is zero.
Write scientific reason.
The value of gravitational acceleration (g) decreases as we go deep inside the earth.
The mass and weight of an object on earth are 5 kg and 49 N respectively. What will be their values on the moon? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6th of that on the earth.
Calculate the escape velocity on the surface of the moon given the mass and radius of the moon to be 7.34 × 1022 kg and 1.74 × 106 m respectively.
(Given: G = 6.67 × 10-11 Nm2/kg2)
