The formula to calculate the Impact Velocity (v) is:
\[ v = \sqrt{2 \cdot g \cdot h} \]
Where:
Impact velocity is the total speed of an object when it makes an impact on the ground or another object after falling from a certain distance. It is influenced by the height from which the object falls and the acceleration due to gravity.
Let's consider an example:
Using the formula to calculate the Impact Velocity:
\[ v = \sqrt{2 \cdot 9.8 \cdot 10} \approx 14 \, \text{m/s} \]
This demonstrates that with a height of 10 meters, the impact velocity would be approximately 14 m/s.
