Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object determines the increase in velocity per second.

In this case the acceleration is 20m/s^2.

[tex]a=\frac{v}{t}=\frac{\frac{20m}{s}}{s}[/tex]

That is, the increase is 20m/s each second.

I hope this is useful for you

Answer:

velocity will increase 20 m/sec each second

Explanation:

Given that the acceleration due gravity is [tex]g=20m/sec^2[/tex]

We have to find the increase in the speed each second

We know that acceleration is nothing but rate of change of velocity as it changes  [tex]20m/sec^2[/tex] so the speed will also changes with 20 m/sec  

the object is falling freely so initial velocity u =0 m/sec

Acceleration due to gravity g= 20 m/s²

Time = 1 sec

From first law of motion

[tex]v=u+gt\\=0+20\times 1\\=20m/sec[/tex]

the velocity will increase 20 m/sec each second
