Problem 1

A pebble is dropped from a bridge, and the distance it falls is given by the equation d(t)=15t2d(t)=15t^2, where dd is in meters and tt is in seconds. If the pebble takes 77 seconds to reach the water below, what is the height of the bridge? Also, calculate the pebble's speed upon hitting the water in kilometers per hour.
