A lead sphere is released from rest at point X, a long way above the surface of a planet. The sphere falls in a vacuum. After a time of 4.0 s, it has fallen through a vertical distance of 3.0 m. Assume the acceleration of free fall is constant. How far will the sphere have fallen from point X at a time of 20 s after its release?

1. A15 m
2. B75 m
3. C80 m
4. D2000 m
