The speed of the toy when it hits the ground is 2.97 m/s.
The given parameters;
- mass of the toy, m = 0.1 kg
- the maximum height reached by the, h = 0.45 m
The speed of the toy before it hits the ground will be maximum. Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy to determine the maximum speed of the toy.
P.E = K.E

Substitute the given values and solve the speed;

Thus, the speed of the toy when it hits the ground is 2.97 m/s.
