Zero Launch Angle - Car Drives Off a Cliff A car drives straight off the edge of a cliff that is h =40 m high. The police at the scene of the accident note that the point of impact is d =86 m from the base of the cliff. Here the initial speed v0 is unknown. Ignore air resistance. The magnitude of the gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s2. Choose the RIGHT as positive x-direction. Choose UPWARD as positive y-direction. A....

A hiker throws a stone from the upper edge of a vertical cliff. The stone's initial velocity is 25.0 m/s directed at 40.0° with the face of the cliff, as shown in the figure. The stone hits the ground 3.75s after being thrown and feels no appreciable air resistance as it falls. (a) What is the height of the cliff (b) How far from the foot of the cliff does the stone land? (c) How fast is the stone moving...
