A rock, thrown horizontally from the top of a light house, strikes the water 2.6 s later. A straight line is drawn from the top of the lighthouse to the point where the rock strikes the water. This line makes an angle of 35 degree with respect to the lighthouse. Determine the initial speed of the rock.
