PLEASE HELP I’LL GIVE BRAINLIST!!!!!!!!
An object in free fall is dropping using only the force of gravity. Let's assume that is the case with the Drop of Doom for a moment just for the sake of our calculations.
When using feet to measure the distance traveled over time, we can approximate the force of gravity as -16ft/sec^2. That means every second, the speed of the ride is increasing at a rate of 16 ft/sec down towards the ground (hence the negative sign).
Zumanjaro is said to be a 415-foot drop. We can represent this fall using the function: h(t)= -16t^2+415, where h is the height above the ground (or in this case the height above the stopping point of the ride) in feet and t is the time in seconds.
Using this function, how long does the ride take to complete its 415 drop?
