A 43 kg rock is dropped from a 36 tower. How long does it take the rock to fall to the ground?

Respuesta :

A 43-kg rock is dropped from a 36 m, experiencing a Uniformly Accelerated Motion and falling to the ground 2.7 s later.

What is a Uniformly Accelerated Motion?

A Uniformly Accelerated Motion is a motion in which the acceleration of the object is constant.

A 43 kg rock is dropped from a 36 m tower. Given the only acceleration is that of gravity, we can calculate the time required to hit the ground using the following kinematic equation.

s = 1/2 × a × t²

t = √(2s / a)

t = √[2 × 36 m / (9.8 m/s²)] = 2.7 s

where,

  • s is the displacement.
  • a is the acceleration.
  • t is the time.
