to wait for the fruit to fall into his mouth. And at last, after many hours of
waiting, the fruit fell into his mouth with a velocity of 4.5 m/s.

1. How high was the fruit from its original position?

2. How long does it take for the guava fruit to fall from its initial position to
its final position?
