s = 1/2*g*t2 where g is the acceleration due to gravity which, on the surface of the earth is approximately 9.8 metres/second2

So t = 4 gives s = 1/2*9.8*42 = 78.4 metres.

What is the difference between monopole antenna and dipole antenna?

Monopole is an antenna with just the radiating element where the ground of the transmitter is connected to an electrical ground which serves as an Image ground to the radiating element. Thus the name "mono" pole. Dipole is where the ground and the radiating elements are connected to two different elements where one is the radiating element and the other is the ground to the later. Thus the name "Di" Pole Cheers by zafran khan


What happened to 139E Gimpy Gulch Road Islamorada Florida 2008 HGTV Home?

It was sold a year later for about 1.6 million. 14 months later it was listed for sale at high 1.3 million but as of June 2011, it is listed at $925,000. Taxes have dropped down to about 10K a year. It's a steal at that price!


Why did settlers on the great plains have to learn new ways of building?

What is the velocity of a ball that has a 3.03 second hit to the ground?

If it was thrown horizontally or dropped, and hit the ground 3.03 seconds later, then it hit the ground moving at a speed of 29.694 meters (97.42-ft) per second. If it was tossed at any angle not horizontal, and hit the ground 3.03 seconds later, we need to know the direction it was launched, in order to calculate the speed with which it hit the ground.

What must be the initial velocity of super boy to catch a package dropped from the top of a 56.0m high building 56.0m and 2 seconds later super boy dives off the building to catch the package?

Diving is generally taken to mean that you start from rest and jump. If Superboy dives off the building, he would initially have had zero velocity, relative to the building.


A rock is dropped from a height of 60 m and is in free fall. What is the velocity of the rock as it reaches the ground 3.5 seconds later?

The velocity of the rock as it reaches the ground after 3.5 seconds of free fall can be calculated using the equation v = gt, where v is the final velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately 9.81 m/s^2), and t is the time in seconds. Substituting the values, v = 9.81 m/s^2 * 3.5 s = 34.335 m/s. So, the velocity of the rock as it reaches the ground is approximately 34.34 m/s.


A ball is dropped from a 150-m tall building Neglecting air resistance what will the speed of the ball be when it reaches the ground 5.5 seconds later Apex?

The speed of the ball when it reaches the ground can be calculated using the kinematic equation: v = u + gt, where v is the final velocity (speed), u is the initial velocity (0 m/s as it's dropped), g is acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2), and t is the time taken (5.5 s in this case). Plugging in the values, v = 0 + 9.8 * 5.5 = 53.9 m/s. So, the speed of the ball when it reaches the ground would be approximately 53.9 m/s.
