Physics

To calculate the work done by gravity on the object after it has fallen for 3 seconds, follow these steps:

 

Calculate the distance fallen

The object is thrown downward, so it has an initial velocity. We can use the kinematic equation to find the distance fallen after 3 seconds:

 

Where:

(initial velocity),

(acceleration due to gravity),

.

 

Substitute the values into the equation:
