Another problem I need help with :(
A stone rolling horizontally off a cliff at 10 m/s lands 48 meters away. How high was the cliff and what is the stone's overall speed just before impact?

Similar problem by the looks to one posted within last couple of hours. It's just that what's being looked for is slightly different. I'd imagine that the cliff is scarily high above sea level, and a DON'T LOOK DOWN notice might be in order.
