Aperegrine falcon dives at a pigeon. the falcon starts downward from rest and falls with free-fall acceleration. if the pigeon is 75.6 m below the initial position of the falcon, how long does the falcon take to reach the pigeon? assume that the pigeon remains at rest. the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . answer in units of s.

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
