h = -4.9t^2 + 100
A.
to reach the ground h = 0
0 = -4.9t^2 + 100
4.9t^2 = 100
t^2 = 100/4.9
t = √(100/4.9) = appr 4.5 seconds
B.
v = -9.8t
sub in t = 4.5
C.
original equation is
h = -4.9t^2 + 12t + 100
set equal to zero again, and solve using the quadratic equation. Take the positive result and ignore the negative answer.
