Answer:
v = 5.24[m/s]
Explanation:
Este problema se puede resolver por medio del principio de la conservación de la energía, donde la energía potencial es igual a la energía cinética. Es decir a medida que el carrito desciende su energía potencial disminuye, pero su energía cinética aumenta.

Answer:
1.08 m/s
Explanation:
This can be solved with two steps, first we need to find the time taken to fall 9.5 m, then we can divide the horizontal distance covered with time taken to calculate the velocity.
Time taken to fall 9.5 m
vertical acceleration = a = 9.8 m/s^2.
vertical velocity = 0, (since there is only horizontal component for velocity, )
distance traveled s = 9.5 m.
Substituting these values in the equation
⇒ t= 1.392 sec
Velocity needed
We know the time taken (1.392 s) to travel 1.5 m,
So velocity = 1.5 m / 1.392 s = 1.08 m/s
hence velocity of the diver must be at least 1.08 m/s
