Consider a rock thrown off a bridge of height 73.4 m at an angle θ = 25° with respect to the horizontal as shown in Figure P4.20. The initial speed of the rock is 10.9 m/s. Find the following quantities: (a) the maximum height reached by the rock (b) the time it takes the rock to reach its maximum height (c) the time at which the rock lands (d) how far horizontally from the bridge the rock lands (e) the velocity of the rock (magnitude and direction) just before it lands. magnitude (f) direction: Give your answer in degrees.
