A ball is dropped from a building of height h. Assume the ball starts from rest and that air friction can be ignored. Derive an

agasfer [191]

Answer:

$t=\sqrt{h/g}$

Explanation:

We use the kinematics equation to solve this question:

$y(t)=y_{o}+v_{o}t+1/2*a*t^{2}$

$v_{o}=0$ because the ball is dropped

$a=-g$ the acceleration is the gravity, negative because it points downwards

$y_{o}=h$ initial height

$y(t)=h/2$ final height

So:

$h/2=h-1/2*g*t^{2}$

$t=\sqrt{h/g}$
