Question 3 • Physics

If a 4 point 5 kilograms object is dropped from a height of 6 point 0 m , what will be its velocity when it is halfway toward the ground? (Use g is equal to 9 point 8 0 the fraction with numerator m and denominator s squared , and ignore air resistance.)

Answer
A
11 meters per second
B
16 meters per second
C
7.7 meters per second
D
29 meters per second

Explanation

The object starts from rest and has fallen half of 6.0 m, which is 3.0 m. Using v² = v₀² + 2gh gives v = √(2 × 9.80 × 3.0) ≈ 7.7 m/s. Therefore, the correct choice is 7.7 meters per second.
