How do you solve this: A squirrel picks a nut from the top of a 49 foot tree and drops it. If the position of the nut after t seconds is given by h = -16t2 + 49, how long until the nut drops to the second squirrel waiting on the ground? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a second.

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

\[h=-16t^2+49\]when t=0 you can see that h=49 which fits with the statement in the question. now, when the nut reaches the ground, what do you think h will be equal to?
