[โ€“] 7 points 3 months ago (10 children)

If you ignore air resistance, that's about 320 meters, from s=at^2^/2, a=g=10, t=8

    You're not falling straight down though.

    These stairs look so steep I deem it a good enough approximation, given I've already rounded g to 10

    If you rounded g down you might have been closer with the fact they are stairs.

    Are we assuming repeatedly hitting the stairs?

    I've always considered vertical and horizontal movement separately, so I thought I'd have to add even more to the approximated traveled road, not decrease it.
