Plate Tectonics cause most earthquakes.
Weight is different (but mass is the same)
U=10 m/s
v=30 m/s
t=6 sec
therefore, a=(v-u)/t
=(30-10)/6
=(10/3) ms^-2
now, displacement=ut+0.5*a*t^2
=60+ 0.5*(10/3)*36
=120 m
And you can solve it in another way:
v^2=u^2+2as
or, s=(v^2-u^2)/2a
=(900-100)/6.6666666.......
=120 m
Answer: 1.22 m
Explanation:
The equation of motion in this situation is:
(1)
Where:
is the final height of the ball
is the initial height of the ball
is the vertical component of the initial velocity (assuming the ball was thrown vertically and there is no horizontal velocity)
is the time at which the ball lands
is the acceleration due gravity
So, with these conditions the equation is rewritten as:
(2)
(3)
Finally:
