- (a) A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 31 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splash 2.67 s later, what was the initial speed given to the rock (in m/s)? Assume the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. 273.73 X You appear to have correctly calculated the distance the rock travels, but you have then used the wrong time to calculate the horizontal speed. m/s (b) What If? If the temperature near the cliff suddenly falls to 0°C, reducing the speed of sound to 331 m/s, what would the initial speed of the rock have to be (in m/s) for the soccer player to hear the sound of the splash 2.67 s after kicking the rock? m/sarrow_forwardth During volcanic eruptions, chunks of solid rock can be blasted out of the volcano; these projectiles are called volcanic bombs.

What should be the expression for the horizontal distance dy at which you release the relief package so that it will arrive to the survivors at the right place? (Neglect the effect of air resistance) Solution To determine this, we must first derive the time it takes for the relief package to reach the survivors. We use this equation -h = Vịnitial-yt + (1/2)ay If we just drop the package from the helicopter, the equation above becomes + (1/2)ay Substituting ay = -g then simplifying results to t = sqrt( which is the time it takes for the object to reach the ground. Since the package will just travel at a constant velocity in the x-axis, thus dx = Vxt Substituting the time taken by the package to reach to ground results to: dx = ( )( sqrt ( )) which is the expression for the horizontal distance at which you should drop the package.arrow_forward
