Question
(a) A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 44 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splash 3.16 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.
11.909
X
The time given in the problem can be divided into two intervals: the time for the rock to hit the water and the time for the sound to return to the kicker. 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 3.16 s after kicking the rock?
m/s
