Answer 1

Answer:

No, it is independent

Explanation:

As we know that car is moving horizontally

so the vertical component of the speed is zero initially

so in order to hit the ground we know that

$\Delta y = v_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

so here we know that

$h = 0 + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

on solving above equation for time

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

so we will say that it will not depends on the initial horizontal speed
