At time $t=0,$ a ball is thrown downward at 30 feet per second from a height of 200 feet above the ground. Due to wind resistance, the velocity of the ball decreases by 1 foot per second every second. The equation $h = -16t^2 - 30t + 1.5t^2 + 200$ describes the height (in feet) of the ball. How many seconds will it take for the ball to hit the ground?
