If a 100 rock is sitting on 15m tall cliff, what is it's gravitational potential energy

Year  1936,  lehman predicted that the earths 'inner core' is solid. she observed that the seismic signals during her study were bent and did not pass through instead bouncing back. later it was confirmed that the earth's inner core was solid made up of nickel-iron and had a molten outer core.

Since you have not included the experiment situation and the data, of course, i can not give you specific details about it. but i can you with this question.1) i will assume that the motion is projectile (parabolic) motion.2) yes, the horizontal distance depends on the horizontal velocity as, naming vx the horizontal velocity and t the time, it is: x = vx × t3) now, observe that the flight time depends on the vertical velocity as, naming voy the initial vertical velocity, t the time and y the vertical distance before reaching the ground: y = yo + voy×t - gt² / 2.the higher the initial vertical velocity (voy) the longer the object will be flying and so t will be higher in the equation for the horizontal distance.that explains the relationship between the horizontal distance and the horizontal velocity.
