A stone thrown from a height of 5.72 meters hits the ground at 13.3, Calculate the initial speed. Neglect air resistance

Respuesta :

Answer:

12.31618 m/s

Explanation:

s = Displacement

t = Time taken

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

[tex]s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 5.72=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{5.72\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=1.07988\ s[/tex]

Velocity is given by

[tex]v=\dfrac{s}{t}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{13.3}{1.07988}\\\Rightarrow v=12.31618\ m/s[/tex]

The initial velocity is 12.31618 m/s
