You throw a 5.0 kg stone from the top of a cliff with an initial vertical velocity of 8.0 m/s downward and an initial horizontal velocity of 7.0 m/s away from the cliff,and it feels no air resistance.After the stone is in the air but free of your hand,its acceleration remains constant at 9.8 m/s² downward but its speed changes.

Question
