Question 1177201
.
<pre>

There is one hidden feature in this problem.


This feature is the initial speed of the sandbag at the time moment of releasing.


This initial speed is 16 ft per second, directed vertically up at the release moment.


Taking it into account, the equation for the position / (the height) of the sandbag as a function of the time is


    h(t) = -16t^2 + 16t + 64.


Having it established, you have a standard problem on a projectile launched vertically up with the given velocity.


After that, you can easily solve the problem and answer all the questions on your own.
