Question 2

A slanted roof rises at 35 above the horizontal, and the straight-line distance from the top of the roof to the bottom edge is 4.5 m. The roof is covered with ice, so it offers no friction to objects sliding on it.
 
  A piece of ice at the top suddenly breaks loose and begins to slide down from rest. (a) How long will it take for the ice to reach the bottom edge of the roof? (b) How fast will the ice be traveling just as it reaches the bottom edge?

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
