An object starts from rest and falls under the influence of gravity. draw graphs of its speed and the distance it has fallen as a function of time from t=0 to t=5s

For an object that is under the pull of only the force of gravity, the motion is called free-fall. The equations that would allow us to calculate for the speed and distance is,

        Speed = gt

Where g is the acceleration due to gravity and the t is the time.

For the distance, it is calculated through the equation,

     Distance = vt + 1/2gt^2

Where v is the initial velocity and is equal to zero.

 

The graphs are attached.
