Question

The acceleration of gravity on Mars is about 3.7 meters per second squared. Suppose a rock falls from a tall cliff on Mars. Write the equation that indicates how fast the rock will be falling after 8 seconds?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is  Equation  vf = gt;  vf = 29.6 m/s

Explanation:

Data

gravity = 3.7 m/s²

vf = ?

time = t = 8 s

Formula

       vf = vo + gt

Initial speed = 0 m/s

To solve this problem we can use the equations of free fall and just substitute the data.

- Substitution

      vf = 0 + (3.7)(8)

- Simplification

      vf = 29.6 m/s
