Question:
Time of descent explaination , equation with example.
Answer:

Time of descent - The time taken by a freely falling body to reach the ground is called the time of descent 

As it is free falling, the initial velocity u, of body =0 m/sec

Gravitational acceleration g is positive.

If the body is falling from height H, then

Using second equation of motion, S = ut+1/2 at2

H = (0)t+1/2 gt2

t2 = 2H/g

t= √2H/g
