Falling+Objects+from+an+overpass

Suppose you are driving on I-95 going towards a Ski Resort in upstate New York, when you come to an overpass in which is covered with icicles. The next overpass you come to however, has a huge icicle which falls straight down onto your truck causing you to crash and harmfully injure your body. The overpass is 20 ft. above the road, but the icicle is only 14 ft above the roadway. When the said icicle falls, it was to be said to be moving at 2m/s.

To figure out the velocity and amount of time it took to fall from the overpass to hit your car you must first convert from feet to meters.

The total height of overpass= 20ft.--> when converted, it is 6.096 m. Distance from Icicle to raodway= 14ft.--> when converted, it is 4.2672 m.
