Question

The KEOM tower across the street from West is approx. 155 meters high

Answer 1

You told your insane friend that it will take the book 5.6 s to get to the ground.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (H) = 155 m

Time (t) =?

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

The time taken for the book to get to ground can be obtained as follow:

H = ½gt²

155 = ½ × 10 × t²

155 = 5 × t²

Divide both side by 5

$t^{2} = \frac{155}{5}$

t² = 31

Take the square root of both side

$t = \sqrt{31}$

t = 5.6 s

Thus, the time taken for the book to get to the ground is 5.6 s

Hence, you told your insane friend that it will take the book 5.6 s to get to the ground.
