Answer:

speed is 58.8 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

time 6 sec

to find out

speed

solution

we know here that our object is free fall

and no air resistance

so speed will be after 6 sec is

speed = g×t .....................................1

put here value in equation 1

speed = 9.8 ( 6)

speed = 58.8

so here speed is 58.8 m/s
