Answer:
a) The velocity is 2.94m/s
b) 0.441
Explanation:
a) Assume gravity is 9.8m/s^2
Use the equation below to solve for the velocity at 0.30 seconds
,
vf =unknown velocity vi= initial velocity vi=0m/s a= 9.8m/s^2 t=0.30seconds
Step 1: Substitute the variables with the knowns
Step 2: Solve
b)
Use the equation below to solve for the displacement at 0.30 seconds
Step 1: Substitute the same variables with the knowns
Note that vi*t=0 as vi=0m/s
Step 2: Solve
x=0.441m
