Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

Data:

  • Height (h) = 9 m
  • Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Velocity Final (Vf) = ?

Use formula:

  • Vf² = 2 * g * h

Replace:

  • Vf² = 2 * 9.8 m/s² * 9 m

Multiply gravity with height:

  • Vf² = 2 * 88.2

Multiply:

  • Vf² = 176.4

Solve the square root:

  • Vf = 13.3

How fast is the ball going?

The speed is going at a speed of 13.3 meters per second.
