Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the second kinematic formula

[tex]x_f-x_i=V_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\20=8t+\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2\\4.9t^2+8t-20=0[/tex]

Apply the quadratic formula to solve for time. The negative value does not matter because time cannot be negative, its impossible.

I got a value of t = 1.363 seconds
