A brick is dropped (zero initial speed) from the roof of a building. The brick strikes the ground in 1.90 s. You may ignore air resistance, so the brick is in free fall.(a) How tall, in meters, is the building?(b) What is the magnitude of the brick’s velocity just before it reaches the ground?(c) Sketch ay−t,vy−t, and y-t graphs for the motion of the brick.

Answer:

h=17m

v=18.6 m/s

Explanation: The question can be solved by applying kinematic equations of motion

Data

u=0

a=g

t=1.9 secs

firstly to calculate the height

[tex]s=ut+0.5at^2\\h=ut+0.5at^2\\h=0*1.9+0.5*9.81*1.9^2\\h=17.707 m[/tex]

to find the final velocity

[tex]v=u+at\\v=0+9.81*1.9\\v=18.639[/tex]

The acceleration graph is straight line of equation y=9.8 as acceleration is constant:

Velocity graph is given by y=9.8x ( y as velocity and x as time):

Displacement graph is given by y=4.9x^2 ( x as time, y as displacement):

These graphs are only applicable from x=0 to x=1.9 ... ignore the other graph sections
