A rock dropped from a 5 m height accelerates at 10 m/s and strikes the ground 1 s later. If the rock is dropped from a height of 2,5 m, its acceleration of fall is

Since acceleration due to gravity is a constant,  the acceleration of the rock dropped from the 5 m height is the same as that dropped from the 2.5 m height and is equal to 10 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration a body falling freely from a height above the earth surface which a body experiences due to the gravitational force of attraction of the earth on the body.

Acceleration due to gravity has a constant value which is equal to 10 m/s².

Therefore, the acceleration of the rock dropped from the 5 m height is the same as that dropped from the 2.5 m height and is equal to 10 m/s².

10 m/s²

Explanation:

The above question simply indicates motion under gravity.

The acceleration due to gravity (i.e acceleration of free fall) has a constant value of 10 m/s².

Whether the rock is dropped from a height of 5 m or 2.5 m, it will accelerate at 10 m/s² before striking the ground. The only thing that will be different is the time taken for the rock to strike the ground when released from both 5 m and 2.5 m.

Thus, the rock will have a constant acceleration of 10 m/s² irrespective of the height to which it was released.
