A car drives straight off the edge of a cliff that is 60 m high. The police at the scene of the accident observed that the point of impact is 126 m from the base of the cliff. How fast was the car traveling when it went over the cliff?

it traveled 126m in √(2*60/9.8) seconds.

so, v = 36.0 m/s = 129.6 km/hr
