Question
A stone was dropped off a cliff and hit the ground with a speed of $ 120\;ft/s $. What is the height of the cliff?
Step 1
The final velocity (v) is 120 ft/s, the initial velocity (u) is 0 (since the stone was dropped, not thrown), and the acceleration (a) is -32 ft/s² (since it's falling due to gravity). Show more…
