They all look right except for question 5. Explain your reasoning.
 
cannot comment on third question without second question. so attach it
 
reconsider the fifth question
 
question 2 attached

With question 5, i thought it could be anything depending on the mass of the object falling

OH is it between zero and g?

Yeah, see the cartoon below question 2...:wink: It can not accelerate greater than g no matter how much mass it has.
 
ohh okay. thanks!

if you have some time, i have a few more attached
