Answer:
106.03 meters
Explanation:
The height is given by the formula for motion under the influence of gravity.
h = -4.9t^2 +162.7
Height is 0 when ...
0 = -4.9t^2 +162.7
4.9t^2 = 162.7
t^2 = 162.7/4.9
t = √(162.7/4.9)
The horizontal distance traveled in that time is ...
(18.4 m/s)√(162.7/4.9) s ≈ 106.03 m
The object will strike the ground about 106.03 meters from the base of the cliff.
