A rock is thrown downward from the top of a 36.2-m-tall tower with an initial speed of 13 m/s. Assuming negligible air resistance, what is the speed of the rock just before hitting the ground

Respuesta :

Explanation:

u = 13m/s

s = 36.2m

a = 9.81m/s² (positive because it is acting on the same direction as the velocity)

Using Kinematics, we have v² = u² + 2as = (13)² + 2(9.81)(36.2) = 879.244m²/s². => v = 29.65m/s.
