if a stone is dropped freely from a bridge into a river then is it falls with a uniform velocity

Open in App

Solution

Dear Student,
If a stone is dropped freely in to a river it will fall with uniform acceleration (gravitational acceleration 9.8m/sec²) due to force of gravity. So the velocity will not remain constant.
Regards.
