D = (1/2)·at²
where d is the distance fallen, a is the acceleration (g in this problem), and t is the time
d = (1/2)·(9.8 m/s²)·(30 s)² = (1/2)·(9.8)·(900) m
d = 4410 m
The answer is b) 4410 m

Note: the mass of the raindrop is irrelevant since the acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass. (Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment)

Answer: Option b, 4410 meters.

Explanation: If there is no air resistance, the acceleration experienced by the raindrop is equal to the gravitational acceleration:

a = -9.8m/s^2

for the velocity, we integrate over time, and there is no constant because we don't have initial velocity.

v = - (9.8m/s^2)*t

For the position, we integrate again over time, and we add a constant of integration that will be equal to the initial height of the raindrop.

r = (-9.8m/s^2)(t^2)/2 + H

if at t= 30s the raindrop reaches the ground, we have that:

r(30) = 0 = (-4.9*900)m + H

H = 4.9*900m = 4410m

So the initial height of the raindrop s 4410 meters.

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

work done on the object by gravitational force = 0 joules

Explanation:

work = force × displacement

force = mass × acceleration

so,

work = mass × acceleration × displacement

we know that mass= 10 kg , gravitational acceleration= 9.8 m/s^2

and displacement= 0 m since the object is not moving vertically.

so,

work = 10 × 9.8 × 0 = 0 joules
