Example 1. An iron ball of mass 3 kg is
released from a height of 125 m and falls
freely to the ground. Assuming that the
value of g is 10 m/s2, calculate
(i) time taken by the ball to reach the
ground
(ii) velocity of the ball on reaching the
ground
(iii) the height of the ball at half the time it
takes to reach t
he ground.
