Question

a stone is thrown into a drain which hits the ground after 6 seconds..how much distance did it travel before hitting the ground?

Answer 1

Answer:

the quetion is wrong because if it is only 6 sec how can we find the distance imppssible

Answer 2

Answer:

The distance travelled before hitting the ground is 180m.

Explanation:

ATQ,

The initial velocity of the stone  = 0ms^-1

The time taken to hit  = 6s

We know, that the acceleration due to gravity is 10ms^-2

Using the third second, equation of motion,

S = u * t  + 1/2 gt^2

Therefore, s = 1/2 * 10 * 36 = 180m

Thus, the distance travelled before hitting the ground is 180m.
