AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to determine how long the ball remains in the air when dropped from a height \( h \) and covers a distance of \( \frac{h}{2} \) in the last second of its motion. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Motion**: - The ball is dropped from a height \( h \). - It falls freely under the influence of gravity, which means its motion is uniformly accelerated. ...
