Vv=gt, dv=1/2gt^2, t=2d/g.

Answer :

Answer:

1.8 m

Explanation:

Given: Glass falls from a table, smashes 0.6 seconds later

To find: How high a table is

Formula: Vv=gt, dv=1/2gt^2, t=2d/g

Solution: A table's height is measured from the top of the edge down to the floor. The tables are shown both have a height of 30 inches, which is common for many tables.

Data

  • t = 0.6s
  • g = 9.81 m/s²
  • d = ?

Equation

  • d = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex][tex]gt[/tex]²

Math & Units

  • d = 4.905 (0.6²)
  • d = 442.676

Hence the table is 1.8 m high
