A log is floating on swiftly moving water. A stone is dropped from rest from 73.4-m high bridge and lands on the log as it passes under the bridge. If the log moves with a constant speed of 5.57 m/s, what is the horizontal distance between the log and the bridge when the stone is released?

I will give a hint

Find time of fall = t

multiply by speed of log
