Ignoring any effects due to air resistance, the speed of the stone is zero at the
instant it's dropped, and increases steadily to 78.98 meters per second when it
hits the ground. The velocity is directed downward throughout the experiment.
You have to let me ignore air-resistance for this one. Since I don't know anything about the shape or size of the stone, I can't calculate any effects of air. Initial velocity = 0 Final velocity = 5 x acceleration = 5 x G = 5 x (9.8 meters / sec2) = 49 meters per second Average velocity during the fall = 1/2 x ( 0 + 49 ) = 24.5 meters per second Distance of the fall = (24.5 meters per second) x (5 seconds) = 122.5 meters = 401.9 ft(approx., rounded)
The speed of a dropped stone will be non-uniform. The stone goes faster as it falls by an amount equal to 32 feet per second, per second. That means for each second of falling, the speed increases by another 32 feet per second until terminal velocity is reached.
The vertical component of its velocity increases at the rate of 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second downward every second. Without involving numbers, simply the vertical component will first be upward at what ever velocity it is when split from the horizontal velocity, then (after reaching the peak of its height at which velocity is zero) it will be a downward vector that, yes, will increase with acceleration due to gravity (which is where the 9.8 meters per second squared came from)
The acceleration of the stone when it is dropped from the top of a tower is equal to the acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.8 m/s^2 downward. This acceleration remains constant as the stone falls towards the ground, neglecting air resistance.
The stone would fall straight down from the release point, it would fall with steadily increasing speed, and when it hit the ground, it would stop falling. The rate at which its speed increased during the fall would be 32.2 feet per second faster every second.
The building is h=.5 gt^2 meters tall; that is = .5x9.8 x25 =122.5 meters.
it depends on the weight on the stone, the wind speed at the time, the strength of velocity, etc.

Assume that acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 ms-2. v2 = u2 + 2gs u, the initial velocity is 0 ms-1, s, the distance travelled is 140 - 20 = 120 m. So v2 = 2352 m2 so that v = 48.5 ms-1 approx.

Dropping a stone from a tall building is an example of acceleration due to gravity. The stone's speed will increase as it falls until it reaches terminal velocity.

"Dropped like a stone" is a simile because it uses "like" to compare the action of dropping to a stone.
Let Vo = initial velocity = 0 (m/s) x = vertical displacement t = time and a = gravitational constant = 9.8 meters per second squared (m/s2) x= initial velocity * time + 1/2 acceleration * time squared = Vot + (1/2)at2 = (0*3.1) + (1/2)(9.8)(3.1)(3.1) = 47.089 meters (metric) = 154.5 feet (English conversion)

It's on a stone building.
