Answer:

The rock will strike with a speed of 21.68 m/s.

It is given that, a person drops a rock for me bridge to the water 24 m below. We need to find the speed with the rock strike the water. It will move under the action of gravity. So, the speed of the rock is given by :


v=√(2gh) \\\\v=√(2* 9.8* 24) \\\\v=21.68\ m/s

So, the rock will strike with a speed of 21.68 m/s.
