Equation for straight line motion: s = ut + 1/2 at^2 ..... where:s = displacement; here 76m downwards.u = initial velocity; here 0t = time - to be found.a = acceleration - here the acceleration due to gravity or 9.8ms-2 downwards.Putting it together:s = ut + 1/2 at^2 76 = 0t + 1/2 x 9.8 x t^2t^2 = 15.51t = 3.9 seconds....
