You're conducting an experiment on another planet. You drop a rock from a height of 1 m and it hits the ground 0.4 seconds later. What is acceleration due to gravity on the planet ?

Here,

v (final velocity) = 0

u (initial velocity) = u

a = ?

s = 1m

t = 0.4s

using the first equation of motion,

0 = u + 0.4a

= -0.4a = u

using the second equation of motion:

1 = 0.4u + 0.08a

from the bold equation

1 = 0.4(-0.4a) + 0.08a

1 = -0.16a + 0.08a

1 = -0.08a

a = -1/0.08

a = -100/8

a = -12.5 m/s/s

please make me , i am 1 away from the next rank
