Burj+Al+Arab,+M+Silverman

The Burj Al Arab is the 49th tallest building in the world. it is 1,053 feet and has 60 floors. It was built in 1999 and is now the fourth tallest hotel in the world. This building stands on an artificial island 920 feet out from Jumeirah beach. The shape of the building was built to mimic a sail of a ship. Every person staying at the Burj Al Arab has a private chauffeur who drives a Rolls Royce, discreet in-suite check in, private reception desk on every floor and a team of highly trained butlers. **Problem #1** While traveling to Dubai I lost my toothbrush. I noticed once i arrived at the Burj Al Arab. I called my butler and asked him to send one up to me. He told me that he would throw one up onto the roof with his new cannon to see if it worked. He told me that his cannons initial speed is 500 ft/s. How long will it take my toothbrush to reach the top of the building? **Problem #2** Troy Dumais, a famous American olympic diver, was planning to dive off of the top of the Burj Al Arab. He wanted to jump to set a new world record for the highest dive. How long would it take for him to reach the water if he was traveling at 60 ft/s once he jumped?
