A stone is thrown 60 degrees below the horizontal at 22 ft/sec and 20 meters above the ground. Using the energy equations, determine its velocity when it hits the ground.

Are you sure the stone was thrown at an angle below the horizontal? If so,

h(t) = 20 - (22*sin60)t - 4.9t^2
solve for t when h=0.

the vertical speed is -22*sin60 - 9.8t
the horizontal speed is a constant 22*cos60

so, knowing the final components of the velocity, you can figure its magnitude and direction.
ft/sec?
If it is you need to convert as well.
