We are already told that the velocity with which an object hits the ground is given by


v=\sqrt[]{19.6h}

and we are asked to find the velocity when h = 49.5. To do this we just substitute 49.5 for h in the above equation to get


v=\sqrt[]{19.6*49.5}

which evaluates to (the nearest tenth)


v=31.2

which is our answer!
