Answer:
Acceleration of that planet is 30 .
Given:
initial speed of hammer = 0
time = 1 s
distance = 15 m
To find:
Acceleration due to gravity = ?
Formula used:
Distance covered by hammer is given by,
s = ut +
s = distance
u = initial speed of hammer
t = time taken by hammer to reach ground
a = acceleration
Solution:
Distance covered by hammer is given by,
s = ut +
s = distance
u = initial speed of hammer
t = time taken by hammer to reach ground
a = acceleration
u = 0
t = 1 s
s = 15 m
a = g
Thus substituting these value in above equation.
15 = 0 +
g = 15 × 2
g = 30
Thus, acceleration of that planet is 30 .

Explanation:
An object in free fall, NOT experiencing parabolic motion, has an equation of
which says:
The height of an object with respect to time in seconds is equal to the pull of gravity times time-squared plus the height from which it was dropped. Normally we use -9.8 for gravity but you said to use 10, so be it.
For us, h(t) is 5 because we are looking for the height of the window when the object is 5 m off the ground at .5 seconds;
g = 10 m/s/s, and
t = .5sec
+h and
5 = -5(.5)² + h and
5 = -5(.25) + h and
5 = -1.25 + h so
h = 6.25
That's how high the window is above the ground.
