A rock is dropped from a 100-m-high cliff. How long do the first 50 meters and the second 50 meters take to fall?
(a) The first 50 meters:
h1 = 0.5 x a x t12
50 m = 0.5% x 9.8% x t12
t1 = 3.19 s
50 meter fall time equals 3.19 seconds.
(a) Counting all 100 meters:
h2 = 0.5 x a x t22
100 m = 0.5% x 9.8% x t22
t2 = 4.52 s
Time to fall 50 meters is equal to t2 - t1 = 1.33 s.
<h3>What is meter?</h3>
The Earth's circumference is around 40000 km, according to the original definition of the metre in 1793, which was one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the North Pole on a great circle. The metre was redefined in 1799 using a model metre bar (the actual bar used was changed in 1889). The definition of the metre in terms of a certain number of wavelengths of a specific krypton-86 emission line was made in 1960.

Answer:
Orbits are the result of a perfect balance between the forward motion of a body in space, such as a planet or moon, and the pull of gravity on it from another body in space, such as a large planet or star
If the speed of an object does NOT change, the object is traveling at uniform speed.
