When something falls to the ground, it accelerates. This acceleration is called the acceleration due to gravity and is symbolized by the letter g. What is the value of g on Earth's surface? a.0 m/s2 b.about 5 m/s2 c.about 10 m/s2 d.about 20 m/s2 e.about 50 m/s2

c. about 10 m/s2

In the absence of air resistance, objects fall at constant a.speed. b.velocity. c.acceleration. d.distances each successive second. e.all of the above

c. acceleration

A ball tossed vertically upward rises, reaches its highest point, and then falls back to its starting point. During this time the acceleration of the ball is always a.in the direction of motion. b.opposite its velocity. c.directed downward. d.directed upward.

c. directed downward

Suppose you are in a car that is going around a curve. The speedometer reads a constant 30 miles per hour. Which of the following is NOT true? a.You and the car are accelerating. b.Your acceleration is constantly changing. c.Your velocity is constant. d.Your direction is constantly changing. e.Your speed is constant.
