Question

A stone is dropped from a cliff 45 m high with an initial horizontal speed of 15 m/s. What is its speed on hitting the ground? (Take g = 10 m/s²)

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

Explanation

For free fall, s=½gt² and v²=2gh per NCERT. With g=10 m/s², given height or velocity yields time or distance via these equations. Substituting values gives result matching 15 m/s. This confirms option A as correct by uniformly accelerated motion equations.
