1. An object falls from a high building from rest. Ignoring air resistance, what will its velocity be after 6
seconds of falling?
2. During construction of the new large apartment building in Midtown, a piece of glass fell from the top
of the building. The glass crashed onto the busy 57 street sidewalk below and injured 3 people. The
new apartment complex has a height of 426 meters. Suppose the glass fell from the top of the building
at rest.
a. Ignoring air resistance, how long would it take the piece of glass to hit the ground?
