Answer:
Have a quick snack an hour before to get the energy, warm up
The speed of the rock at 20 m is 34.3 m/s
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy: the mechanical energy of the rock, sum of its potential energy + its kinetic energy) must be conserved in absence of air resistance. So we can write:
where
:
is the initial potential energy
is the initial kinetic energy
is the final potential energy
is the final kinetic energy
The equation can also be rewritten as follows:
where:
m = 100 kg is the mass of the rock
is the acceleration of gravity
is the initial height
u = 0 is the initial speed (the rock starts at rest)
is the final height of the rock
v is the final speed when h = 20 m
And solving for v, we find:

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.
