The velocity v (in feet per second) of an object dropped from tall building after falling d feet is given by the mathematical model v = . What is the velocity of an object that has fallen 121 feet?
---------------
v = a*t where a is gravitational acceleration ~ 32 ft/sec/sec
s = at^2/2 (s = distance in ft)



v = 88 ft/sec
