When a radioactive material is required to be placed in the body, the applications are brachytherapy and radioisotope imaging.
Radioactive materials are elements which has the ability to disintegrate by emitting radioactive substance or radiation. A good example of this is Cobalt-60, Titanium-99 etc.
Brachytherapy is a therapeutic process in which radioactive material is inserted into the body in close proximity to the region affected. The radioactive material emits radiations which are required to control the unwanted biological material in the body. A good application of this is the treatment of cancer using Cobalt-60.
Radioisotope imaging is a diagnostic process which is an imaging technique that may require placing a radioactive material in the body so as to trace or locate the affected part of the body. In this case, the material is used as a tracing element.
The applications that require the placing of radioactive materials in the body are brachytherapy and radioisotope imaging.

Answer:
It would take the object 5.4 s to reach the ground.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The equation of the height of a free-falling object at any given time, neglecting air resistance, is the following:
h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²
Where:
h = height of the object at time t.
h0 = initial height.
v0 = initial velocity.
g = acceleration due to gravity (-32.2 ft/s² considering the upward direction as positive).
t = time
Let´s supose that the object is dropped and not thrown so that v0 = 0. Then:
h = h0 + 1/2 · g · t²
We have to find the time at which h = 0:
0 = 470 ft - 1/2 · 32.2 ft/s² · t²
Solving for t:
-470 ft = -16.1 ft/s² · t²
-470 ft / -16.1 ft/s² = t²
t = 5.4 s
