Hannah Mendoza · Answer 1

speed is 58.8 m/s

Explanation:

given data

time 6 sec

to find out

speed

solution

we know here that our object is free fall

and no air resistance

so speed will be after 6 sec is

speed = g*t ... 1

put here value in equation 1

speed = 9.8 (6)

speed = 58.8

so here speed is 58.8 m/s
