If I drop a paper clip from rest and it falls freely until it hits the ground with a speed of 30 m/s. How long is the ball in free fall?

Explanation:

If I drop a paper clip from rest and it falls freely until it hits the ground with a speed of 30 m/s,we ae to find the time taken for the ball to drop. To do that we will use the equation of motion v = u + gt

v is the final velocity = 30m/s

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s (the object drops from rest)

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

time is the time taken

Substituting the given parameters into the formula;

30 = 0 + (9.81)t

30 = 9.81t

t = 30/9.81

t = 3.06secs

Hence it will take the object 3.06secs in free fall
