Time taken t by the stone to reach ground is calculated from the equation of motion

img

where h is height of tower , u is initial velocity of stione that is zero because stone is released from rest 

and g is acceleration due to gravity .

If height of tower is 78.4 m , then

78.4 = (1/2) × 9.8 × t2

t2 = 78.4/4.9 = 16

t = 4 s
