Question

A child drops a toy from the top of the balcony at their school. The toy falls a total of 5.25 m before it hits the ground. What is the toys final velocity just before impact?

Answer 1

10.1 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

s = 5.25 m

u = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = u² + 2as

v² = (0)² + 2(9.8)(5.25)

v = 10.1 m/s
