The starting point of the Boltzmann analysis (but first Maxwell went in the same direction) is to renounce to study the behavior of a gas in terms of the detailed motion of the molecules which constitute it, because of their huge number. It is preferable to investigate a function f(x, ν...
the value 9.8 m/s 2 for acceleration due to gravity implies that for a freely falling body the velocity changes by 9.8 m/s every second. q2 does mass have any effect on acceleration due to gravity? the acceleration due to gravity is independent of the mass of the body. q3 what is ...
freely falling body falls a distancegt2/2, wheregis aconstant(later interpreted by Newton as thegravitationalconstant). With the definition of average velocity as the distance per time, the body’s average velocity over an interval fromttot+his given by the expression [g(t+h)2/2 −gt2/2...

The speed of a portion of water flowing through an opening in a tank at a given distance,h, below the water surface is the same as the speed that would be attained by a drop of water falling freely under the force of gravity alone (that is, neglecting effects of air) through the sam...
