A bobsled zips down an ice track starting at 150 m vertical distance up the hill. Disregarding friction, what is the velocity of the bobsled at the bottom of the hill? (g=9.81m/s2)

I got 54m/s anyways here are the answer choices:

27m/s
36m/s
45m/s
54m/s

btw i'm asking because for 3 answers in a row i got D so i'm just trying to make sure i'm not messing up here thanks.

you need to know how much the bobsled weighs.

You don't need the weight if there is no friction.

time = sqrt(2h/g)

time = sqrt(300/9.81) = 5.53 s

velocity = d/t = 150m/5.53s = 27.1 m/s
