A common urban legend propped up in the 1930’s with the opening of the Empire State Building. The legend says that if you throw a penny off the top of the building, it will fall all the way to the ground gaining speed all the way.

1) Calculate the time of flight of the penny (neglect air resistance). Show all work.
2) Calculate the final speed of the penny. Show all work.
3) Convert the final speed of the penny to miles per hour.

Respuesta :

When a body is thrown downwards, it falls freely under gravity.

Acceleration under gravity

The question is incomplete as the values are missing but I will try to help you the much I can. We must note that the acceleration of a body refers to the rate at which its velocity changes per unit time.

When an object is thrown down from a height. It gains speed due to acceleration due to gravity which acts on the body as it falls freely.
