Answer:

14.6m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the student  = 62kg

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Height of slide = 10.6m

g  = 10m/s²

Unknown:

Speed at the bottom of the slide = ?

Solution:

The speed at the bottom of the slide is the final velocity;

             v ² = u²  + 2gh

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

             v² = 0²  +  2x 10 x 10.6

             v²  = 212

              v  =  14.6m/s
