    435 ft off the ground

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Use

    s = u t + 1/2 at²

    Here

    s = distance traveled

    u = initial velocity

    t = time

    a = acceleration

    putting values in equation

    = 16 * 4 + 1/2 32 * 16

    = 64 + 256

    = 320

    So the stone is

    775 - 320 = 435 ft off the ground
