While standing at the edge of the roof of a building, a man throws a stone upward with an initial speed of 7.59 m/s. The stone subsequently falls to the ground, which is 18.9 m below the point where the stone leaves his hand. At what speed does the stone impact the ground? Ignore air resistance and use =9.81 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. I need help finding out the impact speed, please.

v = 20.69 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a stone, u = 7.59 m/s

he stone subsequently falls to the ground, which is 18.9 m below the point where the stone leaves his hand, h = 18.9 m

We need to find the speed of the stone impact the ground. Let the speed be v. Using the equation of kinematics to find v. So,

Here, a = g

So,

So, the speed of the stone impact the ground is 20.69 m/s.

0 = 0.40 / 0 = 0

= 0.20 = 9.80 ⁄2 =?

=0 , = = 0.20 =0.50 0 0.40 ⁄

=0−122 =0−12(9.80 ⁄2)(0.50)2 =1.2
