Answer:

The time for the rock to reach the bottom is 4.02 seconds.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the rock, m = 5 kg

height of the rock fall, h = 79 meters

The time to drop to the given height is given by;

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

where;

t is the time to fall to the bottom

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t =  \sqrt{\frac{2*79}{9.8} }\\\\t = 4.02 \ s

Therefore, the time for the rock to reach the bottom is 4.02 seconds.

What's the mass show the work?
Alja [10]
You do this one just like the other one that I just solved for you.

For this one ...

The density of the object is 2.5 gm/cm³.
We know that every cm³ of it we have contains 2.5 gm of mass.
We have to find out how many cm³ we have.

The question tells us:  We have  2.0 cm³.

Each cm³ of space that the object occupies contains 2.5 gm of mass.

So the 2.0 cm³ that we have contains (2 x 2.5 gm) = 5 gms.
That's the mass of our object.
