from the question you can see that some detail is missing, using search engines i was able to get a similar question on "https://www.slader.com/discussion/question/a-student-throws-a-water-balloon-vertically-downward-from-the-top-of-a-building-the-balloon-leaves-t/"
here is the question : A student throws a water balloon vertically downward from the top of a building. The balloon leaves the thrower's hand with a speed of 60.0m/s. Air resistance may be ignored,so the water balloon is in free fall after it leaves the throwers hand. a) What is its speed after falling for 2.00s? b) How far does it fall in 2.00s? c) What is the magnitude of its velocity after falling 10.0m?
Answer:
(A) 26 m/s
(B) 32.4 m
(C) v = 15.4 m/s
Explanation:
initial speed (u) = 6.4 m/s
acceleration due to gravity (a) = 9.9 m/s^[2}
time (t) = 2 s
(A) What is its speed after falling for 2.00s?
from the equation of motion v = u + at we can get the speed
v = 6.4 + (9.8 x 2) = 26 m/s
(B) How far does it fall in 2.00s?
from the equation of motion we can get the distance covered
s = (6.4 x 2) + (0.5 x 9.8 x 2 x 2)
s = 12.8 + 19.6 = 32.4 m
c) What is the magnitude of its velocity after falling 10.0m?
from the equation of motion below we can get the velocity
v = 15.4 m/s

Let's explain the following electrical terms.
• Electric current, can be said to be the flow of electric charge. These charges are through a conductor by moving electrons.
• Ammeter, is an instrument used to measure the amount of electric current in a circuit.
The name ammeter was derived from the unit of electric current (Amperes).
• Voltmeter, can be said to be an instrument used to measure the voltage(potential difference) in a circuit. It measures the electric potential between two points in an electrical circuit. It can also be called voltage meter.
• Electric circuit, can be defined as the conductive path for the flow of electric current.
It allows electric charge carriers to flow continuously.
• Resistance ,can be said to be the property of an electrical conductor which resists the flow of electric current. It is measured in ohms.
• Ohms law, states that the potential difference (V) between two points is directly proportional to the electric current across two points.
It is deonted as: V = I x R
Voltage = Current x Resistance
• Electric potential ,can be said to be the amount of electric potential energy at a point.
Before going to solve this question first we have to understand specific heat capacity of a substance .
The specific heat of a substance is defined as amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance through one degree Celsius. Let us consider a substance whose mass is m.Let Q amount of heat is given to it as a result of which its temperature is raised from T to T'.
Hence specific heat of a substance is calculated as-
Here c is the specific heat capacity.
The substance whose specific heat capacity is more will take more time to be heated up to a certain temperature as compared to a substance having low specific heat which is to be heated up to the same temperature.
As per the question John is experimenting on sand and water.Between sand and water,water has the specific heat 1 cal/gram per degree centigrade which is larger as compared to sand.Hence sand will be heated faster as compared to water.The substance which is heated faster will also cools faster.
From this experiment John concludes that water has more specific heat as compared to sand.
