Use kinematic equations to solve:
1) yf = yo + vo*t + 1/2at²
yf = final height
yo = initial height
vo = initial velocity
a = acceleration
t = time
yf - yo = vo*t + 1/2at²
yf - yo = h
vo = 0
Thus,
h = 1/2at²
h = 1/2(9.8)(12)² = 705.6 m
2) vf = vo + at
vo = 0
Thus,
vf = at
vf = (9.8)(12) = 117.6 m/s
Answer:
0.5 m/s2
Explanation:
accelration formula : final velocty - starting velocity divided by time
