Free Fall Calculator
Free Fall: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers drop height or fall time or impact velocity. Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.
Free Fall Calculator is a planned calculator in the science section of Super Calculator, covering physics: mechanics.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: drop height or fall time or impact velocity, initial velocity and gravitational acceleration or body selection.
Outputs: impact velocity, fall time, distance fallen, kinetic energy at impact and velocity-time table.
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: With zero initial velocity, v = gt, h = (1/2)gt^2, v = sqrt(2gh). Standard gravity is 9.80665 m/s^2 by definition (CGPM 1901), varying with latitude and altitude from about 9.78 to 9.83 m/s^2 on Earth.
