Given 
s=16t^2 
where
s=distance in feet travelled (downwards) since airborne with zero vertical velocity and zero air-resistance
t=time in seconds after release

Here we're given
s=144 feet
=>
s=144=16t^2 
=> 
t^2=144/16=9
so
t=3
Ans. after 3 seconds, the object hits the ground 144 ft. below.

Answer:

After 3 seconds the object hit the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

An object is dropped off a building that us 144 feet tall. After how many seconds does the object hit the ground.

Given that displacement, s = 16t²

To reach ground displacement should be 144 feet.

That is

            s = 16t² = 144

                      t² = 9

                       t = 3 seconds.

After 3 seconds the object hit the ground.

What is true about the number 3.872? Check all that apply.
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The 7 is in the hundredths place.

The 3 is in the ones place.

3.872 is equivalent to (3 × 1) + (8 × 0.1) + (7 × 0.01) + (2 × 0.001).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the number 3.872, to check all the given options that are true apply to the number, let's take a look at each position occupied by each digit. In order words, let's consider their place value.

Thus,

The 3 is in the ones place and as such has a value of 3.

8 is in the tenths place having a place value of 0.8 (⁸/10)

7 is in the hundredths place having a place value of 0.07 (⁷/100)

2 is in the thousandths place having a place value of 0.002 (²/1000)

Going by these, the following statements are true :

"The 7 is in the hundredths place."

"The 3 is in the ones place."

"3.872 is equivalent to (3 × 1) + (8 × 0.1) + (7 × 0.01) + (2 × 0.001)."

The number is pronounced as three and eight hundred seventy-two thousandths rather than the option given.

Therefore, only 3 if the options are correct
