An object is launched at a velocity of \( 20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \) in a direction making an angle of \( 25^{\circ} \) upward with the horizontal. c) What is the horizontal range (maximum \( \mathrm{x} \) above ground) of the object? d) What is the magnitude of the velocity of the object just before it hits the ground?

A rock is thrown horizontally with a speed of $20 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ from a vertical cliff of height $25 \mathrm{m}$. a. How long does it take the rock to reach the horizontal ground below? b. How far will it land from the base of the cliff? c. What is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the rock just before it hits the ground?

A projectile is fired from ground level at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ above the horizontal with an initial speed of $30 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. What are the magnitude and direction (relative to horizontal) of its instantaneous velocity at (a) the moment it is fired, (b) the moment it reaches its maximum height, and (c) the moment before it hits the ground?
