Free Fall/Falling Objects Centers Explanation
... The astronauts experience weightlessness not because there is no gravity. Rather, weightlessness occurs because they and their spacecraft are free-falling in gravity. When two objects fall freely, one can float inside the other until they both reach the ground. The astronauts float inside the space ...

The accelerating mechanism provides an acceleration that points in the initial direction of motion of the rocket. The net acceleration is the resultant of the accelerating mechanism and the acceleration d ...

If two identical marbles are thrown at each other, one with a greater initial velocity, the faster marble will exert a greater force on the other.” ”[in this case, faster means larger acceleration] ...

... Example 14-5: Spring calculations. A spring stretches 0.150 m when a 0.300-kg mass is gently attached to it. The spring is then set up horizontally with the 0.300-kg mass resting on a frictionless table. The mass is pushed so that the spring is compressed 0.100 m from the equilibrium point, and rele ...
