A pebble is thrown vertically upwards with a speed of 20 m `s^(-1)`. How high will it be after 2 s? (Take g = 10 m `s^(-2)`)

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of how high the pebble will be after 2 seconds when thrown vertically upwards with an initial speed of 20 m/s, we can use the following steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Initial velocity (u) = 20 m/s (upwards) - Time (t) = 2 s - Acceleration due to gravity (g) = -10 m/s² (negative because it acts downwards) ...
