Enzo throws a rock horizontally with a speed of 12 m/s from a bridge. It falls for 2.28 s before reaching the water below with no appreciable air resistance. Just as the rock reaches the water, find
(a) the horizontal component of its velocity.
(b) the speed with which it is moving

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.

total distance/total time

(85 + 82)/(5+3)

167/8

it is b. absorbs thermal energy
