To solve the problem of showing the graphical relationship between the distance fallen (s) and the square of time (t²) for a body falling freely from a height, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Motion**: When a body falls freely, it starts from rest, which means its initial velocity (u) is 0. The only acceleration acting on it is due to gravity (g). 2. **Use the Equation of Motion**: The equation of motion that relates distance (s), initial velocity (u), time (t), and acceleration (a) is given by: \[ ...
