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.
hey girl hey, im sorry you have no answers so far. im looking for some answers too!!!
Subtract 6 from both sides, you get 1/3x=-14
Now multiply both sides by there, hence x=-42
