Falling Object Calculations

The video tutorial introduces the falling object calculator on MassCelebrity.com, explaining how to use it to solve for distance, acceleration, and time by entering two known values. It demonstrates solving for each variable using the formula s = 1/2 a T^2, and highlights the practice problem feature that generates random problems for users to solve. The tutorial concludes with an invitation for viewers to contact the creators with questions.

What is the primary function of the falling object calculator?

• To measure the weight of an object

• To solve for one of three variables: distance, acceleration, or time

• To determine the color of an object

• To calculate the speed of a car

Which two variables do you need to input to solve for distance?

• Acceleration and time

• Time and speed

• Acceleration and distance
