A car is traveling North bound at a speed of 30 m/s. One of its passenger projected a 20- gram stone southwards using a sling shot. The stone was given an initial speed of 10 m/s, with an angle of 30 degrees with respect to the horizontal. What will be the displacement of the car when the stone hits the ground? Neglect the height of the car and position of the passenger who project the stone.
