Assuming free fall in a vacuum, an object will fall approximately 64 meters (210 feet) in 4 seconds, as acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s^2. However, in reality, air resistance would slow down the fall, so the distance would be slightly less. It's important to consider factors such as air resistance, initial velocity, and gravitational acceleration when calculating the distance fallen in a specific timeframe.

depends on the mass of the stone, the shape of the stone, and the height dropped from. sorry dude.
(4 meters/second)(40 seconds) = 160 meters.
Because this is a free fall questions, the equation d=1/2gt² can be used. Gravity is a given, 9.8 m/s² and the time is your 15 seconds of free fall. d=1/2(9.8m/s²)(15s)²= 1,102.5m. To find feet multiply 3.28084 to answer because that is how many feet are in a meter.
In order to come up with an answer, we have to impose a couple of rules: 1). we're trying this on the earth 2). we're ignoring the effects of air 3). it's not moving at the beginning of the 5 seconds ... that's when you drop it from your hand Then the rock falls 400 ft in five seconds. What's really interesting is that it doesn't matter how much it weighs. ALL rocks fall the same distance in 5 seconds.
