The minimum speed with which Captain Brady had to run off the edge of the cliff to make it safely to the far side of the river is around 6 meters per second.
<h3>Further explanation</h3>This is a free fall 2-dimensional type of problem, therefor we can write equations for both dimensions which model the fall of captain Brady. Let's call <em>x </em>the distance travelled by the captain on the horizontal direction and <em>y </em>the distance travelled on the vertical direction.
Lets suppose that Brady jumped with a complete horizontal velocity from a point which we will call the origin (meaning zero horizontal and vertical displacement), and let's call <em>ta</em> the time it took for captain Brady to reach the river (meaning the time he spent on the air). The equations of motion for the captain will be:
We know that at time <em>ta</em> the captain would have traveled 6.7 m on the horizontal direction, and 6.1 m in the vertical direction. Therefor we can write that:
Which gives us a system of 2 equations and 2 unknowns (<em>V</em> and <em>ta</em>). From the second equation we can solve for <em>ta</em> as:
And solving for <em>V</em> on the first equation, we find that:
Which is almost 6 meters per second.
