I believe that formula is incomplete, if it is derived from the kinematic equations.

The full formula being s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

where:

s is the displacement (or how far she travelled in your question)

u is the initial velocity, which I think can be assumed to be 0 m/s

t is the time taken which is 120 s

a is the acceleration due to gravity which points down in a negative y direction, which is -9.8 m/s^{2}

Since initial velocity, u, is assumed to be 0 m/s the equation becomes:

s=\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

Substitute in a = -9.8m/s^{2}  and t = 120 s and calculate your answer.

Tell me what you calculate the answer to be (don't forget units) and I'll let you know if it's right.

The electrical force on a 2-c charge is 60 n. the electric field where the charge is located is
Kazeer [188]
The electrical force acting on a charge q immersed in an electric field is equal to
F=qE
where
q is the charge
E is the strength of the electric field

In our problem, the charge is q=2 C, and the force experienced by it is
F=60 N
so we can re-arrange the previous formula to find the intensity of the electric field at the point where the charge is located:
E= \frac{F}{q}= \frac{60 N}{2 C}=30 N/C
