Question
2. A stone that starts from rest is in free fall for 8.00s. What is the stone's displacement during this time?
Answers
GPT 3.5
The displacement of the stone during free fall can be calculated using the formula:
displacement = (1/2) * acceleration * time^2
The acceleration due to gravity (g) is approximately 9.8 m/s^2.
Given that the stone is in free fall for 8.00s, we can substitute the values into the formula:
displacement = (1/2) * 9.8 * (8.00)^2
displacement = (1/2) * 9.8 * 64
displacement = 313.6 m
Therefore, the stone's displacement during this time is 313.6 meters.
