Question

an object rolls off the top of a building that is 896 feet tall.find the velocity of the object when it hits the ground.approximate to one decimal place

Expert Solution

Step 1

Given that,

the height of the building is $h = 896 (f t)$

And the initial velocity of the object is $u = 0 (f t / s)$

Since there is only acceleration due to gravity acts

Then using the equation of motion

$v^{2} = u^{2} + 2 a s$

where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and s is the distance traveled.
