Motion In Straight Line

Question
CBSEENPH11017064

A body of mass 5 kg is dropped from a height of 100m. With what velocity it will hit the ground? (Take g=10 m/s2)

Solution

Given, 

Mass of the body, m = 5 kg 
Height from where the mass is dropped = 100 m 
Acceleartion due to gravity, g = 10 m/s2 

Using the formula, 

                      v2-u= 2as
Here, 
u = 0, 

a = g = 10 m/s2,

s = 100m

 v2-(0)2=2×10×100=2000 

 v = 44.72 m/s, is the velocity with the body will hit the ground.
