Question
A stone is dropped from rest. What is its velocity after falling 78.4m? (Take g\=9.8m/s2)
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 40 m/s. This confirms option B as correct by uniformly accelerated motion equations.
