Answer:
14 m/s
Explanation:
The motion of the book is a free fall motion, so it is an uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. Therefore we can find the final velocity by using the equation:

where
u = 0 is the initial speed
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration
d = 10.0 m is the distance covered by the book
Substituting data, we find

Answer:
1 greater distances fallen in successive seconds
Explanation:
When a body falls freely it is subjected to the action of the force of gravity, which gives an acceleration of 9.8 m / s2, consequently, we are in an accelerated movement
If we use the kinematic formula we can find the position of the body
Y = Vo t + ½ to t2
Where the initial velocity is zero or constant and the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity
Y = - ½ g t2 = - ½ 9.8 t2 = -4.9 t2
Let's look for the position for successive times
t (s) Y (m)
1 -4.9
2 -19.6
3 -43.2
The sign indicates that the positive sense is up
It can be clearly seen that the distance is greatly increased every second that passes
