Answer:
The rock's speed after 5 seconds is 98 m/s.
Explanation:
A rock is dropped off a cliff.
It had an initial velocity of 0 m/s. And now it is moving downwards under the influence of gravitational force with the gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s².
Speed after 5 seconds = V
We know that acceleration = average speed/time
In our case,
g = ((0+V)/2)/5
9.8*5 = V/2
=> V = 2*9.8*5
V = 98 m/s
Explanation:
Orbital speed= 2pi x radius / time period
=2pi x 1.5x10^11 / 365.25
=2.58x10^9m/day
