Answer:
The final velocity of the object after 2 seconds is 30 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
constant downward acceleration, a = 10 m/s²
initial velocity of the object falling down, v = 10 m/s
time of fall, t = 2 s
The final velocity of the object is given by;
v = u + at
where;
v is the final velocity
v = 10 + (10)(2)
v = 10 + 20
v = 30 m/s
Therefore, the final velocity of the object after 2 seconds is 30 m/s
