Physical Governing Laws
Potential Energy
PE = m * g * h
Terminal Velocity
v = sqrt(2 * g * h)
Linear Momentum
p = m * v
An object with mass of 10 kg dropped from 5 m height hits the ground after 1.01 seconds.
The velocity vector right before impact will be 9.90 m/s, yielding a kinetic energy of 490.5 J.
