According to Eculator's calculator for velocity of a falling object, the speed of the boulder won't be dependent on its mass and will be given by:

v = (2gh)1/2

So, the calculated answer putting h = 200 m would be: 62.609903369994115 m/sec

A rabbit falls in a dry well 30 meters deep when she tries to climb out she goes up 3 meters than falls back 2 meters how many days will it take her to get out?

At the end of the first day she is (3 - 2) = 1 meter above the bottom.At the end of the second day she is [ 1 + (3 - 2) ] = 2 meters above the bottom.At the end of the third day, she is [ 2 + (3 - 2) ] = 3 meters above the bottom....At the end of the 28th day she is 28 meters above the bottom, assuming she hasn't starved to death yet.During the 29th day, she is in the process of climbing up 3 meters, when she reaches the top and flops outonto the ground. This happens at some time during the 29th day.

How does energy transform as an object falls from a height above the ground?

Potential to kinetic.


When you hold a ball above ground does it have kinetic energy?

Potential, changing to kinetic when you release it and it falls.


A boulder is raised above the ground so that its potential energy relative to the ground is 200 J Then it is dropped What is its kinetic energy just before it hits the ground?

260 J. At the point of release, assuming the boulder is stationary before release, its potential energy is 260 J and its kinetic energy is zero. As it falls, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, but energy is neither gained nor lost, so at the point of contact with the ground its potential energy is zero and its kinetic energy is 260 J. If you want to be particularly critical, it could be argued that during the fall some energy is expended in displacing the air, but for a boulder the amount of energy expended would be a very small proportion of the total.
