When it hits the ground, \"+h%28t%29+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+0+=+-16t%5E2+%2B+84t+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t%2A%28+-16t+%2B+84+%29+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+16t+=+84+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+5.25+\" sec
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+-16%2A5.25%5E2+%2B+84%2A5.25+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+-16%2A27.5625+%2B+441+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+-441+%2B+441+=+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "OK
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
