प्रश्न

A camera is accidentally knocked off an edge of a cliff 400 ft high. The camera falls a distance of s = 16t2 in t seconds. How long does the camera fall before it hits the ground?

योग

उत्तर

The camera falls a distance of s = 16t2 in t seconds

s = 400 ft

∴ 16t2 = 400

t2 = `400/16` = 25

t = 5 sec

∴ Camera falls for 5 sec before it hits the ground.
