Answer:
0.71 m/s
Explanation:
We find the time it takes the stone to hit the water.
Using y = ut - 1/2gt² where y = height of bridge, u = initial speed of stone = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² (negative since it is directed downwards)and t = time it takes the stone to hit the water surface.
So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
y = ut - 1/2gt²
82.2 m = (0m/s)t - 1/2( -9.8 m/s²)t²
82.2 m = 0 + (4.9 m/s²)t²
82.2 m = (4.9 m/s²)t²
t² = 82.2 m/4.9 m/s²
t² = 16.78 s²
t = √16.78 s²
t = 4.1 s
This is also the time it takes the raft to move from 5.04 m before the bridge to 2.13 m before the bridge. So, the distance moved by the raft in time t = 4.1 s is 5.04 m - 2.13 m = 2.91 m.
Since speed = distance/time, the raft's speed v = 2.91 m/4.1 s = 0.71 m/s
A because that is the answer
Solution:
With reference to Fig. 1
Let 'x' be the distance from the wall
Then for 
DAC:

Now for the BAC:

Now, differentiating w.r.t x:
![\frac{d\theta }{dx} = \frac{d}{dx}[tan^{-1} \frac{d + h}{x} - tan^{-1} \frac{d}{x}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bd%5Ctheta%20%7D%7Bdx%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdx%7D%5Btan%5E%7B-1%7D%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%20%2B%20h%7D%7Bx%7D%20-%20%20tan%5E%7B-1%7D%20%5Cfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bx%7D%5D)
For maximum angle, 
= 0
Now,
0 = [/tex]\frac{d}{dx}[tan^{-1} \frac{d + h}{x} - tan^{-1} \frac{d}{x}][/tex]
0 = 
After solving the above eqn, we get
x = 
The observer should stand at a distance equal to x =
