Homework Statement
a student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of 7.6 m/s. The cliff is 38 m above a flat, horizontal beach. Find how long it takes to hit the beach, the velocity at impact, and at what angle below the horizontal the stone is when it lands.
Homework Equations
y=Vo*sin(initial angle)*t - .5gt^2
Vox= 7.6 m/s y-yo=38 and g=-9.8m/s^2
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm having a hard time getting started, since I only know Vx, the height, and g. I believe the initial angle would be 0 degrees since the student is throwing the stone horizontally and not vertically.
