Okay, so i took the time to look over this problem and separated the problem into two parts. I let d be my distance, so d = (0)(t1) + 1/2(9.8)t1^2. t1 being my first time. I then took d = vt and used the speed of sound for this problem, so d = (340m/s)(t2). t2 being my second time. i then made...
Homework Statement
A rock is dropped from a sea cliff and the sound of it striking the ocean is heard 5.1 s later. If the speed of sound is 340 m/s, how high is the cliff?
Homework Equations
d=v/t(didnt work)
