Thank you all!

Is the correct answer vf = 31.3 m/s?

Is the formula to find velocity -> vf = vi + 2ad. vf = (0 m/s) + 2(9.81 m/s/s)(50 m) vf = 0 m/s + 981 m/s vf = 981 m/s vf = √(981 m/s) = 31.3 m/s Can someone confirm if the correct speed of the ball before it hits the ground is 31.3 m/s?

Homework Statement If a person drops a 20kg ball from a height of 50m. What is the speed of the ball before it hits the ground? Neglecting air resistance.The Attempt at a Solution I'm not sure if this is a trick question. The formula I would use to solve this is final velocity = initial...
