How do you find time with gravity and height?

Solution

Explanation:

  1. Freefall is a condition where the object is falling freely, and the only force acting on it is the gravity.
  2. Free fall means that an object is falling freely with no forces acting upon it except gravity, a defined constant, g=9.8m/s2.
  3. The distance the object falls is given by the following formula: h=12gt2, where h is height t is time, and g is gravity.
  4. Rearranging the above formula, we can calculate the time with gravity and height as follows:t=2hg

From the above formula, we can calculate the time using gravity and height.
