Let's see:
from year 11 physics:
final velocity = initial velocity + acceleration x time
after 1 second, with starting velocity of zero, and acceleration due to gravity of g = 9.8 m s^-2 you get:
final velocity = 0 + 9.8 x 1 = 9.8 m/sec
I think you should probably brush up on your year 11 physics too :) |
