Detailed Solution

 A ball is released from the top of a tower of height 'h' m. It takes T seconds to reach the ground. What is the position of the ball in T3 sec is 8h9 m from the ground.
Given:
The acceleration of the ball will be g. Initial velocity(u) will be 0. In T seconds the  ball travels 'h' m.  From the second equation of motion, we have:
s=ut+12×gt2, where s represents the position of the particle at any instant t.
But as the ball is falling down from a height 'h', the distance s=h
=>h=12×gT2(1)
In t=T3 s let the height be h1
h1 =12×gt2  =>h1=12×gT32.(2)
Comparing (1) and (2), we get
 h1 = h9 Therefore the position of the ball from the ground,
h'=h-h9  =>h'=8h9
