Reflection: you look in the mirror.
Refraction: You put a straw in a glass of water, and it looks like it broke.
Absorption: If you have a black sweater and you wear it out in the cold, the black sweater is going to hold in heat better than a lighter sweater because the black sweater absorbs light .

Calculate the displacement in m and velocity in m/s at the following times for a rock thrown straight down with an initial veloc

Incomplete question as time is missing.I have assumed some times here.The complete question is here

Calculate the displacement and velocity at times of (a) 0.500 s, (b) 1.00 s, (c) 1.50 s, (d) 2.00 s, and (e) 2.50 s for a rock thrown straight down with an initial velocity of 10 m/s from the Verrazano Narrows Bridge in New York City. The roadway of this bridge is 70.0 m above the water.

Explanation:

Given data

Vi=10 m/s

S=70 m

(a) t₁=0.5 s

(b) t₂=1 s

(d) t₄=2 s

(e) t₅=2.5 s

To find

Displacement S from t₁ to t₅

Velocity V from t₁ to t₅

Solution

According to kinematic equation of motion and given information conclude that v is given by

$v=v_{i}+gt\\$

Also get the equation of displacement

$S=v_{i}t+(1/2)gt^{2}$

These two formula are used to find velocity as well as displacement for time t₁ to t₅

For t₁=0.5 s

$v_{1}=v_{i}+gt\\v_{1}=(10m/s)+(9.8m/s^{2} ) (0.5s)\\v_{1}=14.9m/s\\ And\\S_{1} =v_{i}t+(1/2)gt^{2}\\ S_{1}=(10m/s)(0.5s)+(1/2)(9.8m/s^{2} )(0.5s)^{2} \\S_{1}=6.225m$

For t₂

$v_{2}=v_{i}+gt\\v_{2}=(10m/s)+(9.8m/s^{2} ) (1s)\\v_{2}=19.8m/s\\ And\\S_{2} =v_{i}t+(1/2)gt^{2}\\ S_{2}=(10m/s)(1s)+(1/2)(9.8m/s^{2} )(1s)^{2} \\S_{2}=14.9m$

For t₃

$v_{3}=v_{i}+gt\\v_{3}=(10m/s)+(9.8m/s^{2} ) (1.5s)\\v_{3}=24.7m/s\\ And\\S_{3} =v_{i}t+(1/2)gt^{2}\\ S_{3}=(10m/s)(1.5s)+(1/2)(9.8m/s^{2} )(1.5s)^{2} \\S_{3}=26.025m$

For t₄

$v_{4}=v_{i}+gt\\v_{4}=(10m/s)+(9.8m/s^{2} ) (2s)\\v_{4}=29.6m/s\\ And\\S_{4} =v_{i}t+(1/2)gt^{2}\\ S_{4}=(10m/s)(2s)+(1/2)(9.8m/s^{2} )(2s)^{2} \\S_{4}=39.6m$

For t₅

$v_{5}=v_{i}+gt\\v_{5}=(10m/s)+(9.8m/s^{2} ) (2.5s)\\v_{5}=34.5m/s\\ And\\S_{5} =v_{i}t+(1/2)gt^{2}\\ S_{5}=(10m/s)(2.5s)+(1/2)(9.8m/s^{2} )(2.5s)^{2} \\S_{5}=55.625m$
