How high is the building if the time it takes for a lead weight dropped from the top of the building to fall the last 1.5 m before hitting the ground is .109s?
That depends on the mass of the lead weight and the time it took to cover the rest of the fall.

THow high is the building if the time it takes for a lead weight dropped from the top of the building to fall the last 1.5 m before hitting the ground is 109s?
For the last 1.5m:s = ut + (1/2)at21.5 = ut + (1/2)*10*(109)21.5 - (1/2)*10*(109)2 = u * 109u = -545 ms-1It seems that for this situation to even exist, the lead weight must start going upwards from 1.5m at a speed greater than the speed of sound. This cannot happen if it's dropped off a building, obviously.For the situation to be believable, the time would have to be much shorter, or the distance much larger.
What is the amount of work done by the force of gravity when a stone of mass'm' is dropped from a multi - stroreyed building of height 'h'?
It's exactly the gravitational potential energy that the stone had, relativeto the ground, before it was dropped:M G H = (9.8) x (the stone's mass) x (the height of the building) joules
