To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of the stone thrown horizontally from the top of the tower. We will break the problem into two parts: the vertical motion and the horizontal motion. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Height of the tower, \( h \) - Initial horizontal velocity, \( u = 2\sqrt{gh} \) - Acceleration due to gravity, \( g \) ...
