Where S represents the objects height off the ground.  S subscript 0 is the objects orginial height, V subsript 0 is the initial velocity of the object and t the time that has passed since the object was released.  If a ball was launched from the ground ( originial height zero) with the intitial velocity 118 ft per second find the time it will take for the ball to land.<BR>\n" );
