A peregrine falcon dives at a pigeon. The falcon starts downward from rest with free-fall acceleration. If the pigeon is 66.0 m below the initial position of the falcon, how long does the falcon take to reach the pigeon? Assume that the pigeon remains at rest

Answer 1

h=gt²/2 =>
t =sqrt(2h/g)=
=sqrt(2•66/9.8) =3.67 s
