Ithrow a tennis ball straight down from the roof of a building 400 meters tall. id it leaves my hand at 10 m/s, how fast will it be moving when it hits the ground

consider the motion of the tennis ball in downward direction

Y = vertical displacement = 400 m

a = acceleration = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity of the ball at the top of building = 10 m/s

v = final velocity of the ball when it hits the ground = ?

using the kinematics equation

v² = v²₀ + 2 a Y

inserting the values

v² = 10² + 2 (9.8) (400)

v = 89.11 m/s

grav force prop 1/r squared 2r all squared is 4rsquared 1/4rsquared quartered
