The final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s
Explanation:
Given:
Initial velocity, u = 33 m/s
Height, h = 5m
Final velocity, v = ?
According to Newton’s law:
v² – u² = 2gh
where,
g is the acceleration due to gravity and
g = 9.8 m/s²
On substituting the values we get:
Therefore, the final velocity becomes 31.48 m/s
