Answer:
a) The velocity of rock at 1 second, v = 9.8 m/s
b) The velocity of rock at 3 second, v = 29.4 m/s
c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second, v = 53.9 m/s
Explanation:
Given data,
The rock is dropped from a bridge.
The initial velocity of the rock, u = 0
a) The velocity of rock at 1 second,
Using the first equation of motion
v = u + gt
v = 0 + 9.8 x 1
v = 9.8 m/s
b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,
v = u + gt
v = 0 + 9.8 x 3
v = 29.4 m/s
c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,
v = u + gt
v = 0 + 9.8 x 5.5
v = 53.9 m/s
