Use the rationalized expression from the previous question to
calculate the time, in seconds, that the cliff diver is in free fall.
Assume the acceleration due to gravity, a, is -9.8 m/s2, and the
dive distance, d, is -35 m. The negative numbers indicate the
direction is downward. Round the answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

Time taken (t) = 2.67 s (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find:

Time taken (t)

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity(a) = -9.8 m/s²

Distance (d) = -35 m

Computation:

Using 2nd equation of motion,

d = ut + (1/2)at²

-35 = (0)t + (1/2)(-9.8)t²

-35 = -4.9 (t²)

t² = 7.1428

t = 2.6726

Time taken (t) = 2.67 s (Approx)
