Question

I know that the highlited answer is not right, can you help me to figure it out?

A bullet is fired horizontally from the top of an ocean-based drill site. If the air resistance is negligible and the vertical distance to the water is 35.0 m, what additional information is needed to determine the time required for the bullet to hit the water? (g = 9.81 m/s^2) A. The initial velocity of the bullet. B. The horizontal distance the bullet travels. C. The mass of the bullet. D. More than one of the above. E. No additional information is needed.

Explanation / Answer

y=uyt+0.5gt2

as vertical velocity is zero. no additional information is required to find time travel

E is the answer
