function verticalDist = verticalDist(t,v)
%verticalDist computes the distance of a falling object in meters given the
% falling time and initial velocity
%
% comsumes:
%    t: number, falling time of the object
%    v: number, initial velocity of object
%    
% produces:
%    distance: number, distance of a falling object
%
% examples
%    >> verticalDist(2, 3)
%    ans = 25.6
%    >> distance(8,4)
%    ans = 345.6
