Answer to Problem 61STP

The time it will take a basketball to hit the ground is 1.77 seconds.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: A height given 50 ft. The basketball will hit the ground from that height.

Formula used:

The formula given,

  h=16t2

Where, h = height, t = time in seconds.

Calculation:

Here in the problem given, h = 50 ft.

We will use the given formula to find t.

  h=16t250=16t216t2=50t2=5016t2=258t=±258t=±1.76776695t=±1.77

The time taken can not be negative. So we will take the positive value only.

So, the time it will take a basketball to hit the ground is 1.77 seconds.

Option F is correct,
