Q. A ball is dropped from a height of 80 m. How long will it take to reach the ground?
A.4 s
B.5 s
C.6 s
D.8 s
Solution
Using the formula: h = 0.5 * g * t², where h = 80 m and g = 9.8 m/s². Rearranging gives t² = (2 * h) / g = (2 * 80) / 9.8 ≈ 16.33, so t ≈ 4.03 s.
Correct Answer: C — 6 s

A.25 m/s
B.20 m/s

A.100 m
B.200 m
C.300 m
D.400 m
Solution
Using the formula: distance = initial velocity * time + 0.5 * acceleration * time^2. Here, initial velocity = 0, final velocity = 20 m/s, time = 10 s. Acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time = 2 m/s². Distance = 0 + 0.5 * 2 * 10² = 100 m.
