Given data:

* The height of the balcony is 52.8 m.

* The initial velocity of the coin is zero.

Solution:

By the kinematics equation, the time taken by the coin to land on the fountain is,


H=ut+(1)/(2)gt^2

where H is the height, g is the acceleration due to gravity, u is the initial velocity, and t is the time taken,

Substituting the known values,


undefined
