A bird is flying horizontally at 9.12 m/s. Suddenly, the bird drops a small stone that it was carrying with its

beak. It takes the stone 2.75 seconds to reach the ground. The horizontal component of the stone's velocity
is m/s just before it strikes the ground.

25.08m

Step-by-step explanation:

velocity=9.12m/s

time=2.75s

R(horizontal range)=velocity*time

=9.12*2.75

=25.08m
