A) For upward projection.
v = u -gt
but v = 0, thus u = gt,
t = u/g, t= 7.83/9.81, t = 0.798 sec
Therefore, distance, s
S = ut -1/2gt²
= 7.83(0.798) - 1/2(9.81)(0.798²)
= 6.248 - 3.124
= 3.124 m
Total Height is 10.3 + 3.124 = 13.424 m
For the case of free fall
s= ut + 1/2 gt² but u =0
s = 1/2 gt²
t² = (2 × 13.424)/9.81
t² = 2.7368
t = 1.654 s
Therefore, the time the stone remains in air will be 1.654 + 0.798
= 2.452 seconds
b) Speed of the impact on the ground
v= u + gt but, u = 0
thus v = gt
therefore, v = 9.81 × 1.653
= 16.216 m/s

You can compare the velocity of the car, 60 mph, with the velocity that a mass would acquire when falls from certain height.
First, convert 60 mph to m/s:
60 miles/h * 1.60 km/mile * 1000 m/km * 1h/3600s = 26.67 m/s
Second, calculate from what height a body in free fall reachs 26.67 m/s velocity when hits the floor.
free fall => Vf^2 = 2g*H => H = Vf^2 / (2g)
H = (26.67m/s)^2 / (2*9.8 m/s) = 36.2 m
If you consider that the height between the floors of a building is approximately 3.6 m, you get 36.2 m / 3.6 m/floor = 10 floors.
Then, you conclude that the force of impact is the same as driving you vehicle off a 10 story building.
The answer would be false
