While putting up holiday decorations in the town square, Renee dropped a light bulb from the top of a 25 ft tall tree. Use the formula t= √(h)/4 to find how many seconds it took for the light bulb to reach the ground.



Answer :

It took the light bulb 1.25 seconds for it to reach the ground.

Given the height and a formula:

height = 25 feet

formula = √(h)/4

Substitute in our value and solve.

t = √(25)/4

t = 5/4

t = 1.25

Thus, the time for the light bulb to fall 25 feet is 1.25 seconds.
