OhMyCalc

Free Fall Calculator

Calculate free fall time and impact velocity from height. Uses d = ½gt² and v = gt.

How to Use the Free Fall Calculator

  1. Enter the height from which the object falls in meters.
  2. Click Calculate to find the fall time and impact velocity.
  3. Results show velocity in both m/s and km/h.

1 m0.45 s, 4.43 m/s
5 m1.01 s, 9.9 m/s
10 m1.43 s, 14.0 m/s
50 m3.19 s, 31.3 m/s
100 m4.52 s, 44.3 m/s

使用场景

公式

t = √(2h/g); v = g·t, where h is height (m), g ≈ 9.807 m/s², t is time (s), v is final velocity (m/s).

常见问题

Does this account for air resistance?
No, this calculator assumes free fall in a vacuum. Real-world falls are slowed by air drag.
What value of g is used?
Standard gravity g = 9.80665 m/s².
Is this calculator free?
Yes, all OhMyCalc calculators are completely free.
