(a) The stone moves by uniform accelerated motion, with constant acceleration 
directed downwards, and its initial vertical position at time t=0 is 750 m. So, the vertical position (in meters) at any time t can be written as
(b) The time the stone takes to reach the ground is the time at which the vertical position of the stone becomes zero: y(t)=0. So, we can write
from which we find the time t after which the stone reaches the ground:
(c) The velocity of the stone at time t can be written as
because it is an accelerated motion with initial speed zero. Substituting t=12.37 s, we find the final velocity of the stone:
(d) if the stone has an initial velocity of
, then its law of motion would be
and we can find the time it needs to reach the ground by requiring again y(t)=0:
which has two solutions: one is negative so we neglect it, while the second one is t=11.78 s, so this is the time after which the stone reaches the ground.
