e. an object at rest
f. an object moving at 20 m/s backward, then 20 m/s to the right

1. a glowing pumpkin rolls off the table that is 1 meter high. assuming normal gravity of 9.8 m/s, how long before it crashes to the ground? show your work using the formula.

$t = sqrt { \frac { 2 h } { g } }$

Explanation:

Step1: Substitute values into formula

Given \(h = 1\) meter and \(g=9.8\ m/s^{2}\), substitute into \(t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\). So \(t=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1}{9.8}}\).

Step2: Simplify the expression

\(\frac{2\times1}{9.8}=\frac{2}{9.8}\approx0.204\). Then \(t = \sqrt{0.204}\approx0.45\) seconds.

Answer:

The pumpkin takes approximately \(0.45\) seconds to crash to the ground.
