Question

PLEASE HELP ME!
all caps, so it's obviously important XD

2. The distance traveled by a falling object is given by the formula d = 0.5gt2 where d = distance, g = the acceleration due to gravity, and t = time. Solve this equation for g, and use your formula to determine the acceleration due to gravity if a baseball takes 10 seconds to hit the ground after being dropped from a height of 490 feet. Show all steps in your work.

Answer 1

uhhhhhhhhhhh

Answer 2

yeah, ik >.<

Answer 3

me no know

Answer 4

Ok to solve for g you have d=0.5gt^2, first were there any parentheses?

Answer 5

nope

Answer 6

Okay you can divide by 0.5t^2 and get g=d/0.5t^2

Answer 7

note that g needs to be isolated, and the only true operations being performed in this equation is multiplication
there are two other elements in the right hand side besides g, t^2 and 0.5
so divide both sides by 0.5t^2 (or 0.5, then t^2, same thing0

Answer 8

then just substitute the values it gave you

Answer 9

You have distance=490 and t=10

Answer 10

okay so @Venny now I just plug that in?

Answer 11

Yes and solve that is the answer

Answer 12

thank you SO much <3

Answer 13

No problem!
