Question
What is the distance covered by the skydiver after 10 seconds if his initial velocity was 0 m/s? Assume Fdrag = 0 and acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s

The distance covered by the skydiver after 10 seconds can be calculated using the formula:
s = ut + (1/2)at^2
Where:
s = distance covered
u = initial velocity (0 m/s in this case)
a = acceleration due to gravity (10 m/s^2)
t = time (10 seconds)
Plugging in the values:
s = 0(10) + (1/2)(10)(10)^2
s = 0 + (1/2)(10)(100)
s = 0 + 500
s = 500 meters
Therefore, the distance covered by the skydiver after 10 seconds is 500 meters.
s = ut + (1/2)at^2
Where:
s = distance covered
u = initial velocity (0 m/s in this case)

Plugging in the values:

s = 0 + (1/2)(10)(100)
s = 0 + 500
s = 500 meters
Therefore, the distance covered by the skydiver after 10 seconds is 500 meters.
