5. Use the formulae:

Given: distance =16t^2 for a falling object,
And the fact that distance=1100 *t, where the speed of sound is 1100ft/sec in air.
If you drop a rock into a deep dark well and note that it takes 7 seconds to hear a splash after you drop the rock, how deep is the well? Hint: it takes some time for the rock to fall and then the remainder of the time for sound to travel back up the well for you to hear the splash. You will need the Quadratic formula to solve this one.
