\"distance+travelled+=+%281%2F2%29%2Ag%2At%5E2\" where g is the force of gravity at 32 feet per second squared.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"distance+=+%281%2F2%29%2A32%2A3%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"distance+=+16%2A9\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"distance+=+144+feet\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the building is 144 feet plus 98 feet which equals 242 feet.
