Question

A ball is dropped from a height, if it takes 0.2s to cross the last 6m before hitting the ground, find the height from which it is dropped. Take g=10m/s2 (AS1)

Solution

Given,

Displacement, s=6m

Time, t=0.2sec

Apply kinematic equation of motion

s=ut+12at2

6=u(0.2)+12×10×(0.2)2

u=29m/s

v=u+at

v=29+10×0.2=31m/s

It falls freely from some height h, where initial velocity, U=0

Apply second kinematic equation

V2U2=2gh

h=V22g=3122×10=48.05m

From 48.05mball is dropped.
