A plant falls from a window ledge 3.5 m above the sidewalk. How fast is the plant moving when it hits the sidewalk?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Find the time falling.
\n" ); document.write( "\"s+=+at%5E2%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3.5+=+9.8%2At%5E2%2F2+=+4.9t%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"t+=+sqrt%283.5%2F4.9%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "t = 0.845157 seconds
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "v = at = 9.8 m/sec/sec * 0.845157 seconds
\n" ); document.write( "v =~ 8.2825 m/sec
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
