If a ball dropped from a tower reaches the ground after 3.5 seconds, what is the height of the tower? given: g = –9.8 meters/second2 a. 56.00 meters b. 60.03 meters c. 62.08 meters d. 62.50 meters

B. 60.03 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the equation of motion under gravity:

h = ut - 0.5gt^2      where h = height, t = time and u = initial velocity.

h = (0)(3.5) - 0.5 * -9.8 * 3.5^2

= 60.025 m.

gregory's graph is incorrect because it shows 2 inches of growth for each week when it should show 0.75 inches of growth each week.
