If it is very steep and you throw a little rock down it will be more likely to make all the rocks fall easier than a gently sloped hill that if you throw the same size rock down it would move nothing but little rocks.

Janet jumps off a high diving platform with a horizontal velocity of 2.8 meters per second in lands in the_________.
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Janet jumps off a high diving platform with a horizontal velocity of 2.89 m per s and lands in the water 1.5 s later. How high is the platform?

Platform is 11.025 meters high .

Explanation:

we have Vx = 2.89 m/s

time taken = 1.5 seconds

height of the platform = ?

so,

As Janet is jumping from a high diving platform from a certain unknown height their must be involvement of gravity in action.

we can use,

h = Vi*t+(1/2)*g*t^2

where ,

h = height

Vi = initial horizontal velocity that will be zero

t = time in seconds

g = gravity due to acceleration

now put the values

h = 0+(1/2)*(9.8)*(1.5)^2

h = 11.025-m
