Question 98080: Could someone please help me with this word problem I am unsure how to write the equation or solve it for that matter.Science and medicine. Find the time required for an object to fall to the ground from a building that is 1400 ft high. Use the formula
Answer by checkley71(8403) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
if t=time & s=building height then:
t=1/(4sqrt1400)
t=1/4*37.42
t=1/149.7
t=.00668 which I believe is not the correct time therefore I think you may have the wrong formula.
