Question

An egg is dropped from the top of the band hall. if the band hall is 25 m tall, determine the time it takes the egg to hit the floor.​

Answer 1

Answer:

2.26 s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Height (h) = 25 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =..?

The time taken for the egg to hit the floor can be obtained as illustrated below:

h = ½gt²

25 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

25 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 25 / 4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(25 / 4.9)

t = 2.26 s

Thus, it will take 2.26 s for the egg to hit the floor.
