Question 1 Report

If a mango fruit dropped at a height of 50 meters. How long does it reach the ground? (take g = 10m/s2)
Answer Details
The time it takes for an object to fall from a certain height can be calculated using the equation t = sqrt(2h/g), where h is the height and g is the acceleration due to gravity. In this case, the mango was dropped from a height of 50 meters and g is given as 10m/s^2. Plugging these values into the equation, we get: t = sqrt(2 x 50/10) = sqrt(10) = 3.2 sec Therefore, the mango takes 3.2 seconds to reach the ground. So the correct option is: 3.2sec.
