Best Answer

The object will be falling at 49 m/s.

This is solved by multiplying the force of gravity (9.8 m/s) by the time you're calculating (5s).

If a shoe is dropped from a height of 40m what is its speed after falling for two seconds?

Regardless of the height from which it is falling, (neglecting air resistance) it's speed will be 19.62 metres per second. (Acceleration from gravity is 9.81 metres per second squared, so after 1 second it is moving at 9.81 metres per second and after 2 seconds it is moving at 19.62 metres per second.


How long in seconds does it take to hit the ground after a ball is dropped from a height of h70 m?

neglecting air resistance, distance = 1/2 gt^2 where g = acceleration of gravity = 9./8 m/sec/sec 70 = 1/2 (9.8) t^2 14.28 = t^2 t = square root 14.28 = 3.78 seconds


What is the height of a tower if a rock dropped from it hits the ground after falling for 2 seconds?

19.6 meters / 64.4 ft


What is h 16t2 vt s?

This is the vertical motion model, used when solving for height that an object is dropped from, what height an object is at after so many seconds, what rate the object is falling at, and how many seconds have passed after dropping an object when it is at x height etc. etc. Most often used in Algebra 1 and 2.


If you drop a rock from a great height about how far will it fall after 3 seconds neglecting air resestance?

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2.After 3 seconds, the speed of the falling rock is 29.4 meters (96.6 feet) per second.The rock's average speed during the 3 seconds is 14.7 meters (48.3 feet) per second.The distance it has fallen = (average speed) x (time) = 44.1 meters (144.9 feet).


If an object falls for 12 seconds from what height did it fall ignoring air resistance?

On object falling under the force of gravity (9.8 m/s2) would, in a vacuum, fall a distance of 706 metres in 12 seconds. In a non-vacuum, i.e. air, the object would fall less distance in the same time due to drag.xt = 0.5 (9.8) t2


What occurs only when air resistance does not affect the motion of a falling object?

The mass of an object will not affect the time it takes for it to reach the ground from a fixed height. Backspace


What is uniform for an object falling from a height and non uniform?

Ignoring air resistance, the mass, weight, color, acceleration and direction of such a body are constant, whereas its speed is not. Note: "A height" is the only place from which an object can fall.


If a tennis ball is dropped from a height of 9 meters above the earth how long will it take to hit the ground?

neglecting air resistance, the distance (s) = 1/2 gravity acceleration(g) x time (t) squared; s =1/2 gt^2;solve for time using g = 9.81 m/s/s and you get t = 1.35 seconds


Why the air resistance decrease the acceleration on falling object?

Drop a pound of feathers (in a bag) and a pound of lead from a height. The smaller mass of the lead will let it fall faster due to less air resistance, than the greater mass and much greater air resistance of the feathers.


What is formula of free falling object?

-- There is no formula for the object. -- If you can ignore the effects of air resistance, then there are formulas for the object's height, speed, acceleration, time spent falling before reaching a certain height, and time spent falling before reaching a certain speed. All of the formulas are different. -- If you can't ignore the effects of air resistance, then there are different formulas for each of those quantities. But the formulas involve the size, shape, weight, and surface composition of the object, and each formula is several lines long.


A 6.65 kg laundry bag is dropped from rest at an initial height of 3.20 m?

So? Whats the question? _______________________________ It doesn't matter what it is (well, if we ignore air resistance), in Earth's gravity the object will accelerate at 9.8 meters per second per second. Dropped from an altitude H, you can use the formula =(2/9.8*H)^0.5 to calculate the time it takes (in seconds) to the ground. In the absence of air resistance, it will take 0.808 seconds to fall. The speed of the falling object at any moment can be calculated as the time multiplied by 9.8 meters per second per second. In the absence of air resistance, the laundry bag will be falling at a speed of 7.9 meters per second when it hits.
