Answer:

0.638 seconds

Explanation:

Since the ball is being dropped from a height of 24 meters, the equation will look like this:

24=9.8/s^2.

This is asking for how much seconds it will take for the ball to fall 24 meters to the ground.

Solve the equation:

24(s^2)=9.8

(s^2)=0.408

s^2=0.408

root the number:

0.638

you can round it to the nearest whatever it's asking you to round it to

Im not an expert, so please excuse me if it's not done correctly
