The time spent by the rock in air is 3 s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial  horizontal velocity of the rock, u = 20 m/s

horizontal distance traveled by rock, R = 60 m

The the range of the projectile is given by;

R = vt

where;

v is the initial  horizontal velocity of the rock

t is the time spent by the rock in air

t = R/v

t = 60 / 20

t = 3 s

Therefore, the time spent by the rock in air is 3 s.
