Question

A one euro Is dropped from the leaning Tower of Pisa . It stars from rest & Falls freely.

sketch label the location of the variables in the picture?. compute its position and velocity after 1.0s, 2.0, and 3.0s?

Answer 1

a)

$$y=0+0t+0.5(-10)(1)^2=-5\ m\\ v=0+(-10)(1)=-10\frac{m}{s}$$

b)

$$y=0+0t+0.5(-10)(2)^2=-20\ m\\ v=0+(-10)(2)=-20\frac{m}{s}$$

c)

$$y=0+0t+0.5(-10)(3)^2=-45\ m\\ v=0+(-10)(3)=-30\frac{m}{s}$$
