Someone in a car going past you at the speed of 24 m/s drops a small rock from a height of 1.6 m.

How far from the point of the drop will the rock hit the ground? The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2.

1 answer

time to fall to ground: h=gt t=h/g solve that.

distance horizontal=velocity*time=24*1.6/9.8 m
