Question

An acorn falls from a branch located 9.8 m above the ground. After 1 s of falling, the acorn's velocity will be 9.8 m/s downward. Why hasn't the acorn hit the ground?

Answer 1

Answer:

The acorn hasn't hit the ground because it only falsl half of the branch distance from the ground

Explanation:

given information:

h =9.8

t =1 s

g = 9.8

the average speed

v = 1/2 gt²

   = 1/2 (9.8) (1)²

   = 4.8 m/s

the distance in 1s

h = v t

   = 4.8 (1)

   = 4.8 m

the acorn hasn't hit the ground because it only falsl half of the branch distance from the ground

   =
