Best Answer

Assuming you have the same mass you could use the formula h=-16t^ 2+ c

H stands for height of falling object after time

c stands for height dropped from

t stands for time

If an object is thrown up at an initial speed of 9.8 m per sec how long will it take to fall back to the ground?

If it leaves your hand with a vertical velocity of 9.8 m/sec, its speed drops to zero after 1 second and it begins to fall. After one more second, it returns to the height where it left your hand. (We don't know how much farther it has to fall to hit the ground.)


An arrow is shot straight up at an initial velocity of 250 ms How long will it take the arrow to hit the ground?

51 seconds.


A hammer is dropped off a roof of an apartment building that is 80 meters high How long will it take to hit the ground?

The hammer will take square-root(2x80/9.8)= 4.04 seconds to hit the ground. The distance is related to the time by s=v0t + 1/2 gt^2 where vo, the initial velocity is=0. The answer is 4.04 or rounded is 4 seconds.


When a metal and a plastic ball are dropped on the same height in the end they both have the same change in potential energy or momentum?

No. The change in potential energy and momentum both depend on the mass of the object, and the metal ball and plastic ball have different masses. What's the same for both of them is their acceleration while they fall, the time they take to reach the ground, the moment when they hit the ground, and their speeds when they hit the ground.


Does a person falling from great heights die when they hit the ground or before impact?

When you hit the ground. While they are falling they are in the air, and falling in and of itself will not kill you. The impact will always kill you -- unless you have a heart attack during the fall.

What is the minimum distance to fall and die?

the minimum distance to fall and die would be standing on the ground, but it really depends on how you fall and what you hit. If you hit your head hard enough you could die from standing on the ground.

How long does it take a person to hit the ground after falling 200 feet?

-- If there were no air, and he was dropped from 200 feet, then he wouldhit the ground 3.536 seconds later. (rounded)-- If he were to fall through air, then the answer depends on the person'ssize, shape, weight, clothing, and position during the fall.(Recall that one sky-diver can catch another one by assuming the proper positionduring the fall.)
