Answer:

19.6m/s

Explanation:

A Rock falling off a cliff can be modeled as an object starting with  zero velocity moves with constant acceleration for certain period of time, for such motion following equation of motion can be used.

v(t) = v_{0} +at

here in our case v_{0} =0 because object starts off from rest and a = g =9.8m/s^2 is acceleration because of gravity ( Motion under gravity).

and of course t = 2 second.

Now by substituting all this information in equation of motion we get.

v(2s) = 0+9.8m/s^2 *2s = 19.6m/s

that would be the velocity of rock as it would hit the ground.

Note! We have assumed that there is no air resistance.

What is the instantaneous speed at 5 seconds? (remember s=d/t)
TEA [102]
5 seconds is a poor time to ask about, because the speed abruptly changes at exactly 5 seconds.

Up until that time, the speed has been 1 m/s. And then, at exactly 5 seconds, it becomes zero.
_________

It's also a poor question because speed is calculated from the distance covered, but the graph shows displacement, not distance. You can't really tell the distance covered from a displacement graph. For example, if an object happens to be moving in a circle around the place where it started, then the total distance covered keeps increasing, but its displacement is constant.

Write down short notes on:<br>a. Electrical energy​
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electrical energy is energy derived from electric potential energy or kinetic energy.

Or,

Electrical energy is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge. Lightning, batteries and even electric eels are examples of electrical energy.People use electricity for lighting, heating, cooling, and refrigeration and for operating appliances, computers, electronics, machinery, and public transportation systems.

Hope it helped you.
