Física: Movimiento Vertical - Traful Utemvirtual

Summary

This video script explores vertical motion, focusing on free fall and the acceleration due to gravity. It starts with a historical overview, referencing Aristotle’s incorrect belief and Galileo’s discovery of constant acceleration. The video then explains how objects near Earth's surface experience a constant acceleration of approximately 9.8 m/s², which varies slightly by location. The script delves into the mechanics of projectile motion, using a cannon example to illustrate concepts such as time of ascent and maximum height. It also introduces equations to calculate these factors in vertical motion.
