Answer:

25.8 m/s

Explanation:

Initial Velocity (u) =?

Final velocity before it starts to fall ; v = 0

Distance (S) = 34 meters

Using the relation :

v² = u² + 2aS

a = - 9.8 m/s²

0 = u² + 2(-9.8)(34)

0 = u² - 666.4

u² = 666.4

u = √666.4

u = 25.814724

Hence, vertical velocity when the rock leaves her hand is 25.8 m/s
