If a person jumps 5 feet off the ground, determine how many seconds the person is in the air

Question

anonymous · Answer

$$T(5)=\sqrt{5}/2 s$$

anonymous · Answer

is that how I substitute the height h into the function and evaluate the expression

anonymous · Answer

the person jumps 5 feets, thats the hight, so it is h, H is max hight but it is not used in your equation, maths is case sensitive, H != h, the equationf or hight u wrote is not correct, suppose it was, then thats how u use

anonymous · Answer

so if the total hang time T in seconds is given by T(h)=√h/2

anonymous · Answer

T(5)=\sqrt{5}/2 s

anonymous · Answer

i got 1.12 seconds

anonymous · Answer

correct
