Galileo's great-great-great grandchild stands at the top of avertical tower 57.8 m tall with a Chianti bottle. How long does ittake for the bottle to fall to the ground, if it was just droppedfrom the tower? How far does the bottle land from a point on theground directly beneath the point from which it was launched, ifthe bottle was thrown straight out horizontally from the tower witha speed of 12.9 m/s? What is the bottle's horizontal component ofvelocity, if the bottle was thrown straight out horizontally fromthe tower with a speed of 12.9 m/s? What is the magnitude of itsvelocity just before it strikes the ground, if the bottle wasthrown straight out horizontally from the tower with a speed of12.9 m/s?
