Given:

Eiffel Tower: height = 300 m

acceleration due to gravity: g= 9.806 m/(s^2)

At the top of Eiffel Tower, we release a bowling ball.

(1) Find time it takes to hit the ground: tHit = ?

(2) Calculate the speed of Bowling Ball in (m/s) and (mph) with the following time interval 0.1*tHit.

range (0 : 0.1*tHit : tHit)

Have MATLAB draw 2 graphs:

(3) Top graph: Speed of Bowling Ball in (m/s) with time range (0 : 0.1*tHit : tHit)

(4) Bottom graph: Speed of Bowling Ball in (mph)

___________________________

Review Physics:

h = 0.5 * g * (tHit ^2)

tHit = sqrt(2 * h / g)

Speed: v= g*t (m/s)

v_mph = v * 2.23694 (mph) (Note: 1 m/s = 2.23694 (mph)
