Answer:
The time is 1.8s
Explanation:
The ball droped, will freely fall under gravity.
Hence we use free fall formula to calculate the time by the ball to hit the ground
Where h is the height from which the ball is droped, g is the acceleration due to gravity that acted on the ball, and t is the time taken by the ball to hit the ground.
From the question,
h=16m
Also, let take
By substitution we obtain,
Diving through by 9.8
square root both sides, we obtain
Given parameters:
Initial velocity of Coin = 0m/s
Time taken before coin hits ground = 5.7s
Unknown:
Final velocity of the coin = ?
Velocity is displacement with time. To solve this problem, we have to apply one of the equations of motion.
The fitting one of them here is shown below;
V = U + gt
where;
V is the final velocity
U is the initial velocity
g is the acceleration due to gravity
t is the time taken
Here we use positive value of acceleration due to gravity because the coin is falling with the effect of acceleration and not against it.
Now input the parameters and solve;
V = 0 + 9.81 x 5.7
V = 55.917m/s
Therefore, the final velocity is 55.917m/s.
I would say the last option, since with an increase in temperature, water molecules will speed up.
