A hailstone, 120 m above the
ground, is falling at 11.1 m/s. How
long does it take for it to hit the
ground?

Respuesta :

The hailstone will take 4.04 second to hit the ground.

Gravity accelerates you at 9.8 meters per second per second. After one second, you're falling 9.8 m/s. After two seconds, you're falling 19.6 m/s, and so on.

from the question we conclude following information-

Height (H)= 120 m

acceleration due to gravity (g)=9.8 m/s²

Time (t)=?

the time taken by the hailstone to hit the  ground can be obtained as-

h=1/2 gt²

120= 1/2 x 9.8 x t²

120x2/9.8=t²

t²=24.48

t=4.94 s

therefore, the calculated time taken is 4.94 s.
