A body is released from the top of a building of height 19.6 m. Find the velocity with which the body hits the ground.

Answer»

Data: h = 19.6 m, u = 0 m/s,

g = 9.8 m/s2, s = 19.6 m, v = ?

v2 = u2 + 2 gs .

= 2 gs …..(as u = 0 m/s)

= 2 × 9.8 m/s2 × 19.6 m

= (19.6 m/s)2

∴ v = 19.6 m/s (downward velocity) The velocity with which the body hits the i ground = 19.6 m/s (downward).
