Question 721574: Answer the question using this formula
4.9t2+Vot=5
Approximately how far will an object fall in 6 seconds when thrown downward at an initial velocity of 10 meters per second from a plane?
A) 246.6 meters
B) 238.2 meters
C) 236.4 meters
D) 244.8 meters
E) 232.8 meters
Answer by KMST(5328) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The formula should be
where
= initial downwards velocity in meters per second ,
= time in seconds , and
= distance fallen, in meters .
Once you have the right formula, all you need to do is plug in your known values;
and

NOTES:
Maybe the formula you were given has a different symbol for the distance fallen, but it is not the number 5.
The factor is a constant with units of .
If you were in physics class you would know that is half of the acceleration of gravity on (or near) the surface of planet Earth.
