To solve this, we are going to use the distance of a free fallen object: 
where
is the distance
is the gravity of the Earth 
is the time in seconds
We know form our problem that a cat falls out of a tree and takes 1.4 seconds to land,
. Lets replace that value in our formula to find :
meters
We can conclude that the cat fell a distance of 9.604 meters.
