A ball is thrown vertically downward with an initial velocity of 10 m/s. What is its speed 1 s later and 2 s later?

उत्तर
Initial speed of ball = 10 ms-1.
Acceleration due to gravity on ball = - 9.8 ms-2
We know that from first equation of motion
v= u + gt.
After 1 sec
v= 10 - 9.8 X1
v= 0.2 ms-1
so velocity after 1 sec would be 0.2 ms-1.
Velocity after 2 seconds
v= 10 - 9.8X2 = 10 - 19.6 = -9.6 ms-1.
Here negative sign shows that velocity is in downward direction and magnitude is 9.6 ms-1.
