A helicopter is ascending vertically with a speed of 9.7 m/s. At a height of 175 m above the Earth, a package is dropped from the helicopter. How much time does it take for the package to reach the ground? [Hint: What is v 0 for the package?] (Your answer must be in units of seconds and include two digits after the decimal point. Maximum of 3% of error is accepted in your answer.  Take g=9.80 m/s 2.)
