Answer:

14.7 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s².

Height = 11.025 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) =?

We, can obtain the initial velocity of the penny as follow:

H = ½(v + u) t

11.025 = ½ (0 + u) × 1.5

11.025 = ½ × u × 1.5

11.025 = u × 0.75

Divide both side by 0.75

u = 11.025/0.75

u = 14.7 m/s

Therefore, the penny was travelling at 14.7 m/s before hitting the ground.

eXCUSE ME!!! EXTRA POINTS PLUS BRAINLIEST!!! SUPER DESPERATE HERE!!! The position of an object does not move relative to a refer
Sedbober [7]
It depends whether or not the object in moving relative or not to the reference point, for instance imagine a void where there were no dimensions, but there was an object. You can’t tell if the object is moving or not without a reference point.
