The distance a dropped object falls, with gravity and no air resistance:
Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (falling time)²
Without air resistance, the horizontal motion has no effect on the fall.
Acceleration of Earth gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (falling time)²
Distance = (1/2) (9.81 m/s²) (3.0 s)²
Distance = (0.5) x (9.81 m/s²) x (9.0 s²)
Distance = (0.5 x 9.81 x 9.0) (m-s² / s²)
Distance = 44.15 meters
We don't care how fast the bird was flying horizontally. It doesn't change anything. (It DOES determine how far ahead of the drop point the clam hits the ground. Most problems like this ask for that distance. This one didn't.)

1 to 2 seconds because it had the steepest slope
Answer:
It also plays a key role in vision. As light enters your eye, it gets refracted, or bent, by the cornea's curved edge. This helps determine how well your eye can focus on objects close-up and far away. If your cornea is damaged by disease, infection, or an injury, the resulting scars can affect your vision.
