I would say that this is the first law of thermodynamics.
Let <em>b</em> be the height of the building, and <em>y</em> the height of the ball at time <em>t</em>, given by
<em>y</em> = <em>b</em> - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²
where <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.
It takes the ball 8 s to reach the ground, at which point <em>y</em> = 0, so that
0 = <em>b</em> - 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²
<em>b</em> = 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²
<em>b</em> = 313.6 m
Answer:
sorry in my sense, an experiment once only changes one variable and need a control setup for experimental setup to make sure is fair test
