A ball is released from a height of 20 metres. Calculate; 1. The time it takes to fall 2. The velocity with which it hits the ground

Final velocity of ball = 20 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Height when ball released = 20meter

Find;

Time taken to fall

Final velocity of ball

Computation:

Initial velocity of ball = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

Using equation of motion;

S = ut + (1/2)(g)(t²)

20 = (0)(t) + (1/2)(10)(t²)

20 = 5(t²)

(t²) = 20 / 5

(t²) = 4

Time taken to fall = 2 second

V = u + at

V = 0 + (10)(2)

Final velocity of ball = 20 m/s
