Answer:

4.12 seconds

Explanation:

From the kinetic equation

s=ut+0.5at^{2} where s is the displacement, u is initial velocity, t is time of travel and a is acceleration.

Since the object is initially at rest, the initial velocity is zero hence the equation can be re-written as

s=0.5at^{2} and making t the subject of the formula

t=\sqrt {\frac {2s}{a}}

Substituting s for 85 m and a for 10 m/s2

t=\sqrt {\frac {2*85 m}{10}}=4.123105626 s

Therefore, time is approximately 4.12 seconds
