Vision Learning
Visionlearning: An Experiment: Acceleration During Free Fall
Animated simulation re-enacts Galileo's experiment of dropping objects off the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Falling Down
In this activity, students will determine the average speed of a falling object. They will observe whether or not changing the mass and keeping the same shape have an effect on the average speed of the object.
TeachEngineering
Teach Engineering: How Do Things Fall?
Students learn more about forces by examining the force of gravitational attraction. They observe how objects fall and measure the force of gravitational attraction upon objects.
OpenStax
Open Stax: Falling Objects
In the following interactive module, students will describe the effects of gravity on objects in motion. They will also describe the motion of objects that are in freefall and calculate the position and velocity of objects in freefall.
NASA
Nasa: The Way Things Fall
This site from NASA compares free falling motion to falling with air resistance. Discusses Galileo's experiment. Explains why we believe all objects free fall with the same acceleration.
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: 1 D Kinematics: How Fast? And How Far?
Students understand the physics of a free falling object through these illustrated example problems.
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: 1 D Kinematics: Table of Contents
Learners examine motion with words, equations, diagrams, and graphs. Some topics investigated are position, velocity, acceleration, and free fall. The tutorial consists of lessons and problems to check for understanding.
Concord Consortium
Concord Consortium: Was Galileo Right?
Investigate the effect of gravity on objects of various mass during free fall. Predict what the position-time and velocity-time graphs will look like. Compare graphs for light and heavy objects.

Ck 12: Elem Math: Determining Which Decimal Falls Between Two Given Decimals
[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] For this learning module, students compare decimal numbers to see which one is between the two that they are given. Includes video demonstrating a sample problem...
Physics Classroom
The Physics Classroom: Elephant and Feather: Air Resistance
The concept of air resistance is discussed in terms of why a heavier object falls faster than a lighter object when both dropped from the same height. In this discussion and animation, an elephant and feather are used as examples.

Ck 12: Physical Science: Acceleration Due to Gravity
[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Acceleration due to gravity and why falling objects with different masses accelerate at the same rate.
Concord Consortium
Concord Consortium: Stem Resources: Was Galileo Right?
Do heavier and lighter objects fall at the same rate? Galileo hypothesized that objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass. Complete this module to find out if Galileo was right by comparing position-time and velocity-time...
