2. A rock is dropped off a bridge. How fast is the rock
going at the following points:
a. 1 second:
b. 3 seconds:
C. 5.5 seconds:​

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) The velocity of rock at 1 second, v = 9.8 m/s

b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,  v = 29.4 m/s

c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,  v = 53.9 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The rock is dropped from a bridge.

The initial velocity of the rock, u = 0

a) The velocity of rock at 1 second,

   Using the first equation of motion

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 1

                          v = 9.8 m/s

b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 3

                          v = 29.4 m/s

c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 5.5

                         v = 53.9 m/s
