(a) What are the coordinates of the initial position of the stone? x0 = m y0 = m (b) What are the components of the initial velocity? (c) Write the equations for the x and y components of the stone's velocity as a function of time. (Use the following as necessary: t. Consider t to be measured in seconds. Do not include units in your answer). (d) Write the equations for the position of the stone as a function of time, using the coordinates in the figure. (Use the following as necessary: t. Consider t to be measured in seconds. Do not indicate units in your answer). (e) How long after being released does the stone hit the flat beach below the cliff? (f) With what speed and angle of impact does the stone land?An inflatable raft (unoccupied) floats down a river at an approximately constant speed of 3.9 m/s.

The pilot of the vehicle fires a RCS (reaction control system) thruster, which causes it to accelerate at 0.351 m/s2 in the +x direction. After 33.2 s, the pilot shuts off the RCS thruster. After the RCS thruster is turned off, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the vehicle's velocity relative to the space station. Express the direction as an angle (in degrees) measured from the +y direction.
