If a ball is dropped from rest, it will fall 5 m during the first second. How far will it fall during the second second?

Question

A. 15 meters
B. 10 meters
C. 5 meters
D. 20 meters

the way the question is worded it seems it should be 10meteres but I think it wants total so would it be A. 15 meters?

Answer 1

V = Vo + g*t = 0 + 10*1=10 m/s. T = 1s.

d = Vo*t + 0.5g*t^2
d = 10*1 + 5*1^2 = 15 m.
