The sound moves in a second 340 metres. That is in 3.8 seconds 1292 metres. But because there is the way down to the ocean and back to the ears of the stone dropper, the distance must be half of it. The cliff is 646 metres high.

Assuming you throw the rock horizontally off the cliff it drops down at the acceletrtion of gravity. height= 1/2 gt^2 With g = 9.8 m/sec and t = 5 seconds we have height = (1/2) (9.8)(5)(5) = 122.5 meters notice it has nothing todo with the 50 meter distance, which depends on the horizontal velocity.
