A rock is dropped from a garage roof from rest. the roof is 6.0 m from the ground. determine the velocity of the rock as it hits the ground.

Sagot :

From rest, a rock is dropped from a garage roof. The roof is 6.0 meters above ground level. The rock will reach the earth at a speed of 10.849 meters per second.

What is velocity?

The change of displacement with respect to time is defined as the velocity.  Velocity is a vector quantity.

it is a time-based component. Velocity at any angle is resolved to get its component of x and y-direction.

Given data:

V(Final velocity)=? (m/sec)

h(height)= 6.0 m

u(Initial velocity)=0 m/sec

g(gravitational acceleration)=9.81 m/s²

Newton's third equation of motion:

[tex]\rm v_y^2 = u_y^2+ 2gh \\\\\rm v_y^2 = 0+ 2gh\\\\\ v_y= \sqrt{2\times 9.81 \ (m/s^2)\times 6.0 (m)} \\\\ v_y=10.849 \ m/sec[/tex]

Hence, the velocity of the rock as it hits the ground will be 10.849 m/sec.
