Chrissy was twirling her pencil and accidently dropped it

Chrissy was twirling her pencil and accidently dropped it from a height of 0.8 m. a) How long does Chrissy have to grab her pencil before it hits the tile floor? Use the formula d= ½gt² and solve for t. The acceleration due to gravity (g) is 9.8 m/s². b) How fast is the pencil traveling before it hits the floor? (Round to the nearest tenth). Use the formula Vf = Vi + at, where V; is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
