Falling Distance When an object is falling because of gravity, the following formula can be used to determine the distance the object falls in a specific time period: d = ½ gt² The variables in the formula are as follows: d is the distance in meters g is 9.8 (the gravitational constant) t is the amount of time in seconds the object has been falling Your program will calculate the distance in meters based on the object's falling distance. Modularity: Your program should contain 2 functions: main - will call the falling distance function in a loop, passing it the values 1-10 as arguments (seconds the object has been falling). It will display the returned distance. falling distance - will be passed one parameter which is the time in seconds the object has been falling and will calculate and return the distance in meters. falling distance should be stored in a separate file (module) called distance.py You will import distance before your main function in your original program file.

Please follow the instructions in addition to these

  • Variable names – use meaningful variable names such as total_taxes or num_cookies.
  • Function names – use meaningful verb names for functions such as display_taxes.
  • Named constants – Use named constants for all number values that will not be changed in the program such as RECIPE_SUGAR = 1.5.
Falling Distance
When an object is falling because of gravity, the following formula can be used to determine the
distance the object falls in a specific time period:
d = ½ gt²
The variables in the formula are as follows:
d is the distance in meters
g is 9.8 (the gravitational constant)
t is the amount of time in seconds the object has been falling
Your program will calculate the distance in meters based on the object's falling distance.
Modularity: Your program should contain 2 functions:
main - will call the falling_distance function in a loop, passing it the values 1-10 as arguments
(seconds the object has been falling). It will display the returned distance.
falling distance - will be passed one parameter which is the time in seconds the object has been
falling and will calculate and return the distance in meters. falling distance should be stored in
a separate file (module) called distance.py You will import distance before your main
function in your original program file.
Input Validation: None needed
