$A$ ball is dropped from the top of a $100\; m$ high tower on a planet. In the last $\frac{1}{2}\; s$ before hitting the ground,it covers a distance of $19\; m$. Acceleration due to gravity (in $m/s^2$) near the surface on that planet is:

  • A
    $6.5$
  • B
    $8$
  • C
    $10.3$
  • D
    $5.4$

$A$ football is kicked into the air vertically upwards. What is its $(a)$ acceleration and $(b)$ velocity at the highest point?

With what velocity should a ball be projected vertically so that the distance covered by it in the $5^{th}$ second is twice the distance it covers in its $6^{th}$ second? (Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$)

The velocity-time curve for a body projected vertically upwards is:

$A$ ball is thrown vertically downward with a velocity of $5 \ m/s$. With what velocity should another ball be thrown downward after $2 \ s$ so that it can hit the $1^{st}$ ball in $2 \ s$?

When a ball is dropped into a lake from a height $4.9 \, m$ above the water level,it hits the water with a velocity $v$ and then sinks to the bottom with the constant velocity $v$. It reaches the bottom of the lake $4.0 \, s$ after it is dropped. The approximate depth of the lake is ............ $m$.
