An object is dropped from 26 feet below the tip of the pinnacle atop a 702 ft tall building. the height h of the object after t seconds is given by the equation h=-16t^2+676. find how many seconds pass before the object reaches the ground.

6.5 seconds.

Explanation:

Given: h=-16t²+679

When the object reaches the ground, h=0.

∴ 0=-16t²+679

collecting like terms,

⇒ 16t²=679

Dividing both side of the equation by the coefficient of t² i.e 16

⇒ 16t²/16 = 679/16

⇒ t² = 42.25

taking the square root of both side of the equation.

⇒ √t² =√42.25

⇒ t = 6.5 seconds.

no diagram was provided, but i'm guessing it's the one i've attached to my answer.

here, a mechanical force turns the rod.   this generates an electric current in the coil, which powers the bulb.
