Answer:
The pack has fallen 275.6 m
Explanation:
The pack is in free fall, so it is moving by uniform accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation:
where, choosing upward as positive direction:
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
is the acceleration of gravity
s is the vertical displacement
For the pack in this problem,
u = 0
v = -73.5 m/s
Solving for s, we find how far the packet has fallen:
And the negative sign means the direction of the displacement is downward.
