A stone is thrown horizontally at 14m/s from a height of 39.2m. What is its time of flight? (Take g\=9.8m/s2)
Vertical motion: y=12gt2, where y=−39.2m. As per NCERT Chapter 3, equations v=u+at, s=ut+½at², v²=u²+2as describe uniformly accelerated motion. Applying correct signs and units gives 12 gt as the result, so option A is correct.
