Problem

A ball is released from rest from a balcony 20 m20\,\text{m} above the ground. Neglecting air resistance and taking g=9.8 m/s2g = 9.8\,\text{m/s}^2, calculate the speed with which the ball strikes the ground. (a) 14.0 m/s14.0\,\text{m/s} (b) 28.0 m/s28.0\,\text{m/s} (c) 19.8 m/s19.8\,\text{m/s} (d) 9.9 m/s9.9\,\text{m/s}
