An object is launched directly in the air at a speed of 32 feet per second from a platform located 8 feet in the air. The motion of the object can be modeled using the function f(t) = −16t² +32t + 8, where t is the time in seconds and f(t) is the height of the object. How long, in seconds, will the object be in the air before hitting the ground? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a second. Do not include units in your answer.
