Velocity = distance / time

v = (15*1000)m / (2*60*60)s

v=2.08 m / s

ave vel = total distance/total time in a specified direction

15km/2hr due east=7.5k/h d east

A car traveling at 30 m/s drives off a cliff that is 50 meters high? How far away does it land?

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The maximum range $R_{max}= 132. 72$ m

Explanation:

Given,

The initial velocity of the car, u = 30 m/s

The height of the cliff, h = 50 m

Let the car drives off the cliff with a horizontal velocity of 30 m/s.

The formula for a projectile that is projected from a height h from the ground is given by the relation

$R_{max}= \frac{u}{g}\sqrt{u^{2} + 2gh }$ m

Where,

g - acceleration due to gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation

$R_{max}= \frac{30}{9.8}\sqrt{30^{2} + 2X9.8X50 }$

= 132.72 m

Hence, the car lands at a distance, $R_{max}= 132. 72$ m
