A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of
v0 = 19.5 m/s.
The cliff is h = 56.0 m above a flat, horizontal beach as shown in the figure.
A student stands on the edge of a cliff with his hand a height h above a flat stretch of ground below the clifftop. The +x-axis extends to the right along the ground and the +y-axis extends up from the ground to the top of the cliff. The origin O of the coordinate plane is directly below the student's hand where the base of the cliff meets the flat ground. The student throws a stone horizontally rightward with initial velocity vector v0. The stone falls with a parabolic trajectory, hitting the ground with a velocity vector v that points down and right. Vector g points straight down.
