Achild, starting from rest at the top of a playground slide, reaches a speed of 7.0 meters per second at the bottom of the slide. what is the vertical height of the slide? [neglect friction.]

The vertical height achieved by child during sliding is 2.50 m

Given data:

The initial speed of child is, u = 0 m/s. (Since child was initially at rest)

The final speed of child is, v = 7 m/s.

Apply first kinematic equation of motion to obtain the value of time (t) to achieve the vertical height (h) as,

Here, g is the gravitational acceleration.

Solving as,

Now, apply the second kinematic equation of motion as,

Thus, we can conclude that the vertical height of the slide is 2.50 m.
