Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

a = 32 feet / second

vi = 0

d = 1472 feet

t = ?

Formula

d = vi*t + 1/2 a t^2

Solution

1472 = 0*t + 1/2 * a * t^2               Multiply both sides by 2

2944 = 32 * t^2                             Divide by 32

2944/32 = t^2                

92 = t^2                                    Take the square root of both sides

sqrt(t^2) = sqrt(92)

t = 9.59 seconds
