What do you know:
d=-8.0mm (starts higher and ends lower so it is negative)
Vi=0m/s (because it was dropped, not thrown)
A=-9.8m/s^2 (gravity)
Vf=???
Use the equation:
Vf^2=Vi^2+2A(d)
Vf^2=2(-9.8)(-8.0)
Vf^2= 156.8 -->find the square root of this
Final answer: Vf= 12.5m/s

An object is dropped on Earth from a height of 15 m. What is the magnitude of the velocity of the object just as it hits the gro
ivolga24 [154]
Here, we know, according to 3rd Equation of Kinematics, 
v² - u² = 2as

Here, u = 0  [ Free fall ]
a = 9.8 m/s² [ constant value for the Earth system ]
s = 15 m

Substitute their values, 
v² - 0² = 2 * 9.8 * 15
v² = 294
v = √294
v = 17.15 m/s

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!
