A stone is dropped from the top of a building into a pool of water at ground level. The splash is seen 5 seconds after the stone is dropped. What is the height of the building in feet?

Answer 1

hi,

As you know for finding height of building you need to follow h = 1/2 g t²

h = 1/2 ( 9.8 ) (5)² meter

then convert to feet

1 meter = 3.28 feet

height in feet : h = 1/2 ( 9.8 ) (5)² * 3.28

I hope it is useful,
