Answer 1

1. **What is the final downward velocity of a quarter dropped from a tower after 10 seconds?*** Formula: v_f = g * time* g = 9.8 m/s²* time = 10 s* v_f = (9.8 m/s²) * (10 s)* v_f = 98 m/s downward**Answer:** 98 m/s downward2. **A penny is dropped into a well that is 275 m deep. What is the downward velocity of the penny after 15 seconds?*** Formula: v_f = g * time* g = 9.8 m/s²* time = 15 s* v_f = (9.8 m/s²) * (15 s)* v_f = 147 m/s downward**Answer:** 147 m/s downward (Note: The depth of the well is irrelevant to the velocity after 15 seconds of freefall.)3. **If a block of wood that fell from a tall building reaches a speed of 78.4 m/s, how long has it been falling?*** Formula: v_f = g * time* v_f = 78.4 m/s* g = 9.8 m/s²* time = v_f / g* time = (78.4 m/s) / (9.8 m/s²)* time = 8 s**Answer:** 8 seconds4. **An egg-drop experiment was dropped from the top of a building. What is the downward velocity after 4 seconds?*** Formula: v_f = g * time* g = 9.8 m/s²* time = 4 s* v_f = (9.8 m/s²) * (4 s)* v_f = 39.2 m/s downward**Answer:** 39.2 m/s downward5. **An acorn fell from an oak tree. What was its speed after 1 second?*** Formula: v_f = g * time* g = 9.8 m/s²* time = 1 s* v_f = (9.8 m/s²) * (1 s)* v_f = 9.8 m/s downward**Answer:** 9.8 m/s downward6. **If a raindrop has a speed of 98 m/s, how long has it been falling?*** Formula: v_f = g * time* v_f = 98 m/s* g = 9.8 m/s²* time = v_f / g* time = (98 m/s) / (9.8 m/s²)* time = 10 s**Answer:** 10 seconds
