Answer:

around 98 meters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Instantaneous velocity can be found with a equation.

Vf=Vi+At

Since it fell and had no initial velocity the equation becomes

Vf=At

The Acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2

So the velocity of it fell for ten seconds is

Vf=9.8m/s^2 * 10

Vf= 98 m/s
