Expert Solution
Step 1

Given

The horizontal velocity is uh = 2.3 m/s.

The height from which robot is pushes or the vertical distance cover by the robot is h = 17 m.

By the newton equation of motion, the vertical distance formula is given as,

h=uv×t+12gt2

Here, uv is the vertical initial velocity which is equal to 0 as it is free fall from the height, t is the time it hits the ground and g is acceleration due to gravity whose value is 9.8 m/s2.

Substitute the known values.

17 m=0×t+12×9.8 m/s2 ×t2t2=17 m×29.8 m/s2 =3.4694 s2t=3.4694 s2=1.86 s
