The correct answer is C) towards the center of the circle.
Although the object is moving at a constant speed it is constantly accelerating due to the constant change in direction as it describes the circular path. This causes a constant change in velocity as velocity is a vector quantity.
For the object to maintain the circular path there has to be centripetal force acting on the object and this centripetal force is directed towards the center of the circle.
The velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground, given the data is 21.56 m/s
<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
- Time to reach ground from maximum height (t) = 2.2 s
- Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
- Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
- Final velocity (v) =?
<h3>How to determine the velocity when the ball strikes the ground</h3>
The velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground can be obtained as illustrated below:
v = u + gt
v = 0 + (9.8 × 2.2)
v = 0 + 21.56
v = 21.56 m/s
Thus, the velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground is 21.56 m/s

Answer: Reflection is the change in direction of a wavefront at an interface between two different media so that the wavefront returns into the medium from which it originated. Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves.
