A video game says it has realistic motion...like real objects on earth, where free fall acceleration is a=-10m/s my hobbit character shoots a flaming arrow -25m/s (Vs) straight down on orcs invading the castle. It hits orcs 1.5 seconds later at 50m/s finale speed (Vf). Find the games freefall a for this arrow

Answer:

The answer to your question is a = 50 N/kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

t = 1.5 s

vo = -25 m/s

vf = 50 m/s

a = x

Formula

vf = vo + at

solve for a

at = vf - vo

a = (vf - vo) / t

Substitution

a = (50 - - 25) / 1.5 The problem is giving a negative vo so it will be positive

a = (50 + 25) / 1.5

Simplification

a = 75/1.5

Result

The game free fall a = 50 N/kg
