A tennis ball is beaten downward with an initial speed of 5 m/s. How fast, in m/s, is the ball falling after 3 seconds (neglect air
friction, so g = 9.8 m/s2)?

a 34.4
b 34.4
C 9.8
d 9.8
e 5

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

initial speed u= 5m/s

time t= 3seconds

acceleration due to gravity g= 9.8m/s^2

Required:

the final velocity v

Step two:

applying the first equation of motion

v=u+gtwe used + because the ball is falling with gravity

v=5+9.8*3

v=5+29.4

v=34.4

The final velocity is 34.4m/s
