On the set of a new Hollywood movie, a 73.1-kg stunt actor (Max Payne) is tossed straight out of a helicopter hovering (stationary) at a height of 63.4 meters. The stunt actor is thrown from the helicopter at a speed of 5.43 m/s, eventually landing in the water below. Determine the stunt actor's impact speed and assume negligible air resistance. You can use the approximation that g = 10 m/s².
