A rock is dropped off a 60m high cliff. How fast is it going when it hits the water?

Respuesta :

The final velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 34.3 m/s.

The given parameters;

  • height of the rock, h = 60 m

The final velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2gh

where;

v is the final velocity of the ball

u is the initial velocity of the ball

v² = 0 + 2gh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 60)

v = 34.3 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 34.3 m/s.
