A flowerpot accidentally falls off the window of a condominium unit. Your unit is located below where the flowerpot had fallen. Your window measures to be 1.60 m tall, and the time it takes the flowerpot to move past your window is 0.150 s (from the top part to the bottom part of the window). How high from the top of your window did the flowerpot fell off?
