Problem

A 0.5 kg0.5\,\text{kg} ball is dropped from rest from a height of 10 m10\,\text{m}. Neglecting air resistance, what will be its speed when it reaches a height of 4 m4\,\text{m} above the ground? (Take g=10 m/s2g = 10\,\text{m/s}^2) (a) 7.8 m/s7.8\,\text{m/s} (b) 14 m/s14\,\text{m/s} (c) 11 m/s11\,\text{m/s} (d) 5.5 m/s5.5\,\text{m/s}
