Question
23. A friend of yours has a one-story house with a pool in the backyard. Someone gets the bright
idea to jump from the roof of the house into the deep end of the peel
IỆ the roof of the house is 16 ft tall and the horizontal distance between the edg
a.
f the house and the pool is 10 ft, what would the jumper's minimum velocity need to
be to land in the pool?
b.
Let's assume your friend can jump with an initial horizontal velocity of 15 ft / s.
What is their total velocity when they hit the water? (hint: determine both the x and y
velocity components, find the resultant)
