Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf h = 19.6\ m}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

Time = t = 2.00 secs

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 m/s²

Initial Velocity = [tex]\sf V_{i}[/tex] = 0 m/s

Required:

Height = h = ?

Formula:

[tex]\sf h = V_{i} t + \frac{1}{2} gt^2[/tex]

Solution:

Putting the given in the above formula

h = (0)(2) + 1/2 (9.8)(2)²

h = 1/2 (9.8)(4)

h = (9.8)(2)

h = 19.6 m

Hope this helped!
