5 A small object is projected over horizontal ground from a point O at ground level and makes a loud noise on landing. It has an initial speed of \(30 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\) at \(35 ^ { \circ }\) to the horizontal. Assuming that air resistance on the object may be neglected and that the speed of sound in air is \(343 \mathrm {~m} \mathrm {~s} ^ { - 1 }\), calculate how long after projection the noise is heard at O .
