Lisa throws a stone horizontally from the roof edge of a 50 meter high dormitory. It hits the ground at a point 60 m from the building. Find the time of flight.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Time of flight is the time of takes to hit the ground

Given

Height H = 50m

Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8m/s³

Using the equation of motion;

S = ut+1/2gt²

u = 0m/s

Substitute and get time t

50 = 0(t)+1/2(9.8)t²

50 = 4.9t²

t² = 50/4.9

t² = 10.204

t = √10.204

t = 3.19secs

Hence the time of flight is 3.19secs
