So i know when an object is falling down to earth its 9.8m/s, well say a person is falling for 15 seconds and the person weighs 150 pounds would the person weight add to the speed that the person would achieve while falling to earth?
In: Physics
The person’s weight will not affect their velocity in a vacuum. It does affect the force with which they are falling.
F = mxa = 150lbs (use metric you monster) x 9,81m/s^2.
This force will help them overcome air resistance.
This force will also affect the size of the hole that they leav eon the ground.
