If you were to drop a rock from a tall building, assuming that it had not yet hit the ground, and neglecting air resistance. What is its vertical displacement (in m) after 4 s? (g = 10 m/s2)

Respuesta :

Answer:

d = 80 m

its vertical displacement (in m) after 4 s is 80 m

Explanation:

From the equation of motion;

d = vt + 0.5at^2 ......1

Where;

d = displacement

v = initial velocity = 0 (dropped with no initial speed)

t = time of flight = 4s

a = g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^2

Substituting the given values into equation 1;

d = 0(4) + 0.5(10 × 4^2)

d = 0.5(10×16)

d = 80 m

its vertical displacement (in m) after 4 s is 80 m
