Answer: Worked solution
Vertical initial velocity is zero:7.35=½(9.80)t², so t=1.225 s.[1 equation+1 result] Range=12.0 t=14.7 m.[1] Impact vertical speed=9.80 t=12.0 m/s, so total speed=√(12.0²+12.0²)=17.0 m/s.[1 components+1 magnitude] The impact is 45° below horizontal if direction is additionally stated.
