How long does it take for a bowling ball to fall 1m?

How long would it take a ping pong ball to fall the same distance?



Answer :

1. It will take 0.45 s for the bowling ball to fall 1 m

2. it will take 0.45 s for the ping pong ball to fall 1 m

Data obtained from the question

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Height (h) = 1 m
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Time (t) =?

How to determine the time taken to fall

The time taken for the bowling ball to fall can be obtained as illustrated below:

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 1 / 4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1 / 4.9)

t = 0.45 s

Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the bowling ball to fall.

Considering the ping pong ball, it will also take 0.45 s to fall 1 m since the same gravity is acting on it
