A marble is dropped from rest and falls for 2.3 seconds. Find its final velocity.

23 m/s downward

Taking the downward direction as positive

We are given:

Initial velocity of the marble (u) = 0 m/s

Time interval (t) = 2.3 seconds

Final velocity (v) = x m/s

Solving for the Final velocity:

Acceleration of the Marble:

We know that gravity will make the marble accelerate at a constant acceleration of 10 m/s

Final velocity:

v = u + at                                              [First equation of motion]

x = 0 + (10)(2.3)                                    [replacing the given values]

x = 23 m/s

Hence, after 2.3 seconds, the marble will move at a velocity of 23 m/s in the downward direction

we can see how the government has failed them.
