Answer: I think Its the Height is 11.76 Meters (38.582677 Feet) between the bridge and the ground

Explanation: Supposing that where not counting air resistance in the equation, the equation
D = ut+(1)/(2) at^(2) states that 1/2 multiplied by earths gravitational acceleration multiplied by the amount of time to reach the bottom: 2.4 seconds equals 11.76 meters of height between the bridge and the ground.
