Water drops are falling from the nozzle of a shower onto the floor, from a height of \(9.8~\text{m.}\) The drops fall at regular intervals of time. When the first drop strikes the floor, at that instant, the third drop begins to fall. Then the position of the second drop from the floor when the first drop strikes the floor is:
1. \(4.18~ \text{m}\)
2. \(2.94~ \text{m}\)
3. \(2.45~ \text{m}\)
4. \(7.35~ \text{m}\)
