Detailed Solution

Let ‘n’ is last sec Sn is distance in last sec
Then from  S=Ut+12at2,     H=0+12gn2--(1)
Distance travelled before the last second is  H0.36H=0.64H
 0.64H=12gn12 substitute H value from equation (1) 0.64(12gn2)=12gn12
0.64n2=n1264100n2=n128n=10n102n=10n=5 
The time of fall is 5sec
  H=12gn2 H=121052 H=2502 H=125m=height of the tower
