The instant it was dropped, the ball had zero speed.
After falling for 1 second, its speed was 9.8 m/s straight down (gravity).
Its AVERAGE speed for that 1 second was (1/2) (0 + 9.8) = 4.9 m/s.
Falling for 1 second at an average speed of 4.9 m/s, is covered <em>4.9 meters</em>.
ANYTHING you drop does that, if air resistance doesn't hold it back.
Answer:
slow revolution and fast rotation
Explanation:
Here’s my work to your question. I used Newton’s Second Law and a kinematics equation to arrive at the answer.
