Acoin is dropped from a height of 188 meters. neglecting air resistance, how much time (in seconds) was the coin in the air?

Explanation:

With a initial velocity is zero, kinematics equation is:

electric

explanation:

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
