Homework Statement
- A ball is dropped from somewhere above a window that is 2.00 m in height. As it falls, it is visible to a person looking through the window for 200 ms as it passes by the 2.00 m height of the window. From what height above the top of the window was the ball dropped?
Is it correct to assume that since the average velocity of the ball passing the window is 10 m/s, I can assume it took about 1.22s after the initial position due to gravity to reach the overall average velocity? This is the approach I took to the problem and would appreciate it if anyone can tell me if its correct or not. If not, please explain how too approach the problem. Thank you!
