Thanks a lot for this. My swedish textbook did not describe this solution for my assignment neither did the assignment, so had to search for a solution for this myself. Thank you!

Question: How does someone even make up a formula specific for this? What kind of other things could you measure with this formula? Or is this formula specific to this problem?

I hope you're taking care of yourself, your voice sounds hoarse!
Please be well! Love your videos.

Why don't you just mesure the time with a watch from the drop to the catch?
