Check your math. I used 10 instead of 9.8 for g since I was just doing a "back of the envelope" calculation. 10 x 10 x 3 = 300.

sigh, you are absolutely correct. The rounding up messed with my brain I saw the 300 and thought "oh that is just 10 * 3 (brain fart) he didn't add in the 9.8"
AND I have to correct mine too since I used 180 for time (30 * 6 rather than 30 * 60)
