which one of these motions is not at constant acceleration, (1) a rock falling from a cliff, (2) an elevator moving from the second floor to the fifth floor making stops along the way, (3) a dish resting on a table
Added by Princess R.
Step 1
The acceleration is approximately 9.8 m/s^2. (2) An elevator moving from the second floor to the fifth floor making stops along the way is not at constant acceleration. The elevator may accelerate, decelerate, or remain at a constant speed during the journey, Show more…
