Answer:

S = 122.5m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Time, t = 5 seconds

Since it's a free fall, initial velocity, u = 0

To find the displacement, we would use the second equation of motion given by the formula;

S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}

Where;

  • S represents the displacement or height measured in meters.
  • u represents the initial velocity measured in meters per seconds.
  • t represents the time measured in seconds.
  • a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

S = 0*5 + \frac {1}{2}*(9.8)*5^{2}

S = 0 + 4.9*25

S = 122.5m.

Q3. You throw a ball into the air, it reaches a certain height and then comes back to you.
Grace [21]

The If a car is going round a curve , there is an acceleration because the direction of the velocity changes.

<h3>What is the direction of the velocity?</h3>

Now we know that if you throw the ball upwards, the motion is in opposite direction to gravity thus the ball is experiencing deceleration and the speed decreases. The velocity decreases and the acceleration is negative.

If the ball is coming down, then the ball is accelerated thus it speeds up and the direction of the acceleration is positive.

If a car is going round a curve, the vehicle is accelerating because the direction of the velocity changes even if its amount remains constant.

When a board is moving down a hill at 2 ms-1, it is experiencing an acceleration because the motion is in the same direction as gravity.

If a car is coming to a stop at a point, it experiences a deceleration and not an acceleration since the change of velocity with time is negative as the car comes to rest.
