Ignoring wind resistance how long will it take a rock to hit the ground if it is released from the top of a 36 foot tall building?

Just over 1 second. Gravity moves objects here on Earth at 32 ft per second squared. At the end of the first second it will fall 32 of the 36 ft.

How many seconds will it take for an egg dropped from the top of a 363 foot tall building to hit the ground?
Ignoring air resistance . . .H = 1/2 G t2t = sqrt(2H/G) = sqrt(2 x 363 / 32.2) = 4.75 seconds (rounded)
A baseball is hit straight up at an initial velocity of 100 meters per second. What will be the baseball's speed when it hits the ground?
I assume you hit it up from the ground level as well. From Conservation of Energy, it immediately follows that: * If there is no air resistance, when it hits the ground it will, once again, have a speed of 100 meters per second. * Since under usual circumstances there WILL BE air resistance, its speed will be less than 100 meters per second.
A brick is released with no initial speed from the roof of a building and strikes the ground in 2.00 s encountering no appreciable air drag How tall in meters is the building?
19.6m
What is the name for a triangular building with a roof that touches the ground?
An A-Frame
A ball is dropped from the top of a building and hits the ground 3 seconds later. a. what is the height if the building b. with what speed did it hit the ground?
a. 144 feet b. 96 ft/sec.
What is the velocity of a stone dropped of a building 318 meters?
Ignoring any effects due to air resistance, the speed of the stone is zero at the instant it's dropped, and increases steadily to 78.98 meters per second when it hits the ground. The velocity is directed downward throughout the experiment.

Why is it dangerous to jump of a tall building Explain this in terms of the forces acting on you?
There is no air resistance to keep you from hitting the ground, the density of your body is heavier then the air, causing you to fall quickly into the ground.
When a body is projected simultaneously from the top of the building with different initial horizontal velocity which of the two will hit the ground first?
Ignoring air resistance, the horizontal component of velocity has no connection with, and no effect on, the vertical component. Two bodies that leave the top of the building simultaneously with the same vertical velocity hit the ground at the same time, regardless of their horizontal velocities or their masses. That's the same as saying that a bullet fired horizontally from a gun and a bullet or a stone dropped from the gun's muzzle at the same instant hit the ground at the same instant. Strange but true.
Does ground have a high resistance?
It depends on the definition of resistance and the definition of ground. If you are referring to resistance as in resistance to electric current, the answer will be different than if you are referencing resistance as in friction. Also, the ground is not consistent. There are many types of "ground." More specification is necessary here in order to receive a sufficient answer.
What are the release dates for Building Green - 2006 Breaking Ground 1-1?
Building Green - 2006 Breaking Ground 1-1 was released on: USA: 6 October 2006
Does electricity follow the longest path?
no. electricity seeks the shortest path with the lowest resistance. An example will be lightning. A tall building offers a lower resistance than air or even moist air in a storm. Hence, the lightning strikes the tall building more likely than it hits the ground surrounding the tall building.
A softball and a ping-pong ball are dropped off of a tall building Which statement describes in what order they hit the ground and why?
The softball hits the ground first because it is less affected by air resistance.
What should be the height of the building when a 20 kg objectdropped fromthe top of the building possesses 5000j of energy at the time of fall?
When you say "time of fall", I'm going to assume you mean "time of hitting the ground".The kinetic energy it has when it hits the ground is exactly the potential energyit had on the roof. (As is our tradition, we're ignoring air resistance.)Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)5,000 = (20) x (9.8) x (Height)Height = 5,000 / (20 x 9.8) = 25.51 meters

Ignoring air resistance a bullet fired horizontally has how many forces acting on it after leaving the rifle?
One. Only the bullet's weight. In this case, the bullet would not decelerate and will keep moving at muzzle velocity until it hits the ground.
