Chapter 3, Problem 26P(choose chapter or problem)
(II) Extreme-sports enthusiasts have been known to jump off the top of El Capitan, a sheer granite cliff of height 910 m in Yosemite National Park. Assume a jumper runs horizontally off the top of El Capitan with speed \(\text {4.0 m/s}\) and enjoys a free fall until she is 150 m above the valley floor, at which time she opens her parachute (Fig. 3–37). () How long is the jumper in free fall? Ignore air resistance. (
) It is important to be as far away from the cliff as possible before opening the parachute. How far from the cliff is this jumper when she opens her chute?
