Introduction to Free-Fall and the Acceleration due to Gravity
From YouTube, produced by Flipping Physics
In this lesson we extend our knowledge of Uniformly Accelerated Motion to include freely falling objects.  We talk about what Free-Fall means, how to work with it and how to identify and object in Free-Fall.  Today I get to introduce so many of my favorites: the medicine ball, the vacuum that you can breathe and, of course, little g.

Content Times:
0:22 An Example of An Object in Free-Fall
0:54 Textbook definition of a freely falling object
1:11 We have not defined a "Force" so this is how we define Free-Fall
2:07 No Air Resistance (The Vacuum that You Can Breathe!)
3:10 What does it mean to be in Free-Fall? (The Acceleration due to Gravity)
4:41 The Acceleration due to Gravity - Not on Earth
5:24 g is not constant on Earth.  Very close, but not quite
5:56 Common Misconception: Objects moving upward can be freely falling
6:35 Free-Fall is Uniformly Accelerated Motion
7:27 What does the negative mean in -9.81 m/s^2?
7:57 Is "g" positive or negative?
9:01 How can "g" be not constant and we can use UAM?
10:03 Does mass effect the acceleration due to gravity?

Dr. Skateboard's Action Science - Center of Gravity
From YouTube, produced by Dr. Skateboard
Dr. Skateboard's Action Science is designed to incorporate both classroom activities that focus on concepts in physical science that integrate action sports, including skateboarding and Bicycle Motocross (BMX). Dr. Robertson acts as both the narrator and a performer in the series, which also includes top extreme athletes in BMX and skateboarding. This brief segment focuses on explaining the center of gravity.   (01:27)

What is Gravity?
From learner.org, produced by Annenberg
This thirty-minute video explains gravity. The study of gravity has played a central role in the history of science—from Galileo and Newton to Einstein's twentieth century theory of general relativity. Yet, in spite of five centuries of study, many aspects of gravity remain a mystery. How can gravity, which in many ways is the dominant force in the universe, be at the same time, by far, the weakest of the four known forces in nature? See how physicists are approaching this question through two topics of intense research in gravitational physics today: short-scale measurements of gravity's inverse-square law, and the search for ripples in space-time known as gravitational waves. This video, which as a printable script, features interviews with experts as well as excellent graphics to help show students what gravitation may look like. For sophisticated students. (28:25)

Why do Black Holes Have Such Strong Gravity?
From YouTube, produced by Phil Plait
This is a live video chat.  The narrator was asked, “Why do black holes have such stronger gravity than the stars they formed from?”  Here's the answer, gravity depends upon two things, the mass of the object and how far away you are from it.  The mass of a star when it collapses the core forms a black hole, so now you can get closer to it and the gravity draws you in.  Video is somewhat confusing - the narrator speaks fast and may be hard for young students to understand. (04:11)

The Gravity of the Situation
From YouTube, produced by Children's Museum of Houston
Its time for a no-holds barred match to see who was right Aristotle or Galileo as we answer the question.. Do heavier objects fall faster than lighter objects? And, of course, what Mr. O video would be complete without something just plain ridiculous like say dropping water balloons off a 20+ foot balcony. (Yes, it was fun, but dont try it at home kiddies!). (05:31)

Thank Goodness for Gravity
From pbslearningmedia.org, produced by KET
The boy featured in this video has concerns about spinning through space on Earth until he is introduced to a Foucault pendulum. He learns that French scientist Jean Bernard Léon Foucault used his knowledge of pendulums to demonstrate Earth’s rotation and how that movement is a steady, measurable motion rather than a dangerous one. KET adapted this video from the original produced by the Lexington Public Library in Lexington, KY.  (05:46)
