A squirrel is resting in a tall tree when it slips from a branch that is 56 m above the ground. It is a very agile squirrel and manages to land safely on another branch after only 0.8 s. What is the height of the branch it lands on?Squirrel physics problem please help?
The squirrel falls s=(1/2) g t^2 = 0.5 * 9.8 * 0.8^2 = 3.1 m
The height of the branch it lands on is 56 - 3.1 = 52.9 m
