The woman was standing on a cliff 30 meters above where she landed. There was a safety fence 4 meters from the cliff edge that w

ould have prevented her from taking a long distance to run and leap off the cliff. She landed 12 meters away from the base of the cliff. Her launch speed was calculated to be 4.86 m/s, meaning that to travel those 12 meters, she had to be traveling at 10.87 miles per hour (or moving faster than a runner at a 5.5 minute mile pace) as she left the cliff. Put all this information together. Why did forensic scientists determine that the woman’s body was thrown instead of concluding that she jumped off the cliff?

Answer:

Forensic scientists determined that the woman’s body was thrown off the cliff because after considering the velocity and angle of the projectile needed in relationship to the cliff she could not have reached those speeds and cleared the safety fence 4m away from the cliff’s edge. She would have been going faster than a 5.5 minute mile pace and she was not an athletic person.

Why does the closed top of a convertible bulge when the car is riding along a highway? Why does the closed top of a convertible
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Option D

The air pressure inside the car is greater than the pressure outside.

Explanation:

When considering airflow over and around a surface, from Bernoulli's equation, air flow regions with higher velocity have a lower pressure, and regions with lower velocity have a higher pressure.

The air outside the convertible is moving faster than the air inside the convertible. This leads to a higher pressure zone just below the surface of the roof (inside the car) causing the roof of the convertible to bulge upwards
