(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?
