A ball Is dropped from a height of 100'. The height of the ball can be determined using the equation h = -16t^2+ 100, Where H is the height, in feet, and T is the time in seconds. If age equals 0 Kama find all the values of T and determine whether the values are reasonable for this solution

Answer:

2.5secs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the ball modeled by the equation  h = -16t^2+ 100, where

h is the height

t is in seconds

We can find the time taken by the ball to reach the ground.

The ball reaches the ground when the height h = 0

Substitute h = 0 into the equation and find t;

0 = -16t^2+ 100

16t^2 = 100

t^2 = 100/16

t = √100/16

t = 10/4

t = 2.5secs

Hence the ball reaches the ground after 2.5secs
