Suppose that a movie is being filmed. An action shot requires an object to be thrown upward with an initial velocity of

32

feet per second off the top of the plaza, a height of

560

feet. The height h(t) in feet of the object after t seconds is given by the function

h left parenthesis t right parenthesis equals negative 16 t squared plus 32 t plus 560

. Determine how long before the object strikes the ground. (Hint: Let the height, h(t), be 0 and solve for t.)
