An object falls from a high building. Ignoring air resistance, what will its velocity be after 6 seconds of falling? An object falls from a high building and hits the ground in 9.0 seconds. Ignoring air resistance, what is the distance that it fell? During a tornado in 2008 the Peachtree Plaza Westin Hotel in downtown Atlanta suffered damage.

Ignoring air resistance, what will the velocity of the piece of glass be when it strikes the ground? An object falls from the Transco Tower in Houston and takes 15 seconds to reach the ground. What is its velocity at impact if air resistance is ignored? How tall is the building? What is its acceleration at the 2nd second? What is its acceleration at the 5th second?
