Free Fall: measuring g and testing object effects

Students use the Free Fall remote lab to test h versus t^2, estimate gravitational acceleration, and decide when object shape affects real data.

• Collect reference fall-time evidence from the LabsLand Free Fall remote lab.
• Use h = 1/2 g t^2 to estimate gravitational acceleration from height and time.

Includes student questions and response prompts.

Which falls first, the heavy ball or the light one?

Students use the Free Fall remote lab to predict, observe, and compare whether a heavy ball reaches the floor much sooner than a light ball.

• Predict which of two balls you think will reach the floor first.
• Observe and record the fall time shown by the lab for each ball.

Includes student questions and response prompts.
