2. Use the kinematic equations to derive a general equation for the time it takes a ball dropped from rest at vertical height, h, to reach the ground
. t= V0,y-g(Vf,y)
The initial velocity of the ball is zero. i.e
The acceleration is due to gravity
And the total distance traveled is the height
We know
Putting the values
So, the expression for the time to reach the ground from rest is
