A stone falls down from the top of a wall in 1 s to the ground (`g=10 m/s^2`)
Calculate the average speed when the stone is falling down

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`Average speed = frac(Total distance)(Total time)`
`Total distance=S=ut+1/2at^2`
`=0xx1+1/2xx10xx1^2`
=5m
`Average speed=5/1=5m/s`
