Even though Alice visits the wishing well frequently and always tosses in a coin for good luck, none of her wishes have come true. As a result, she decides to change her strategy and make a more emphatic statement by throwing the coin downward into the well. If the water is 5.63 m below the point of release and she hears the splash 0.93 seconds later, determine the initial speed at which she threw the coin. (Take the speed of sound to be 343 m/s.)
