Chapter 3, Problem 3.10E
A daring 510-N swimmer dives off a cliff with a running horizontal leap, as shown in Fig. E3.10. What must her minimum speed be just as she leaves the top of the cliff so that she will miss the ledge at the bottom, which is 1.75 m wide and 9.00 m I below the top of the cliff?

.
A rock is thrown off a cliff at an angle of 44 with respect to the horizontal. The cliff is 126 m high. The initial speed of the rock is 22 m/s.
I have that the change in y above the cliff is 11.92.
I am having trouble finding how far has it moved horizontally when it is at maximum altitude?
and the I can't find the total time of fight.
I'm not sure the formula for the range either.
Thank you.
A ball is thrown at a speed of 35 m/s and an angle of 45o off of the top of a building where the ball starts at a height of 60 m above the ground. How far away from the building does the ball strike the ground?
A rock is thrown off a vertical cliff at an angle of 44.5o above horizontal. The cliff is 75.7 m high and the ground extends horizontally from the base. The initial speed of the rock is 18.4 m/s. Neglect air resistance.
A: How far, in meters, has the rock moved horizontally at the moment it reaches its maximum height?
B: How high above the ground, in meters, is the rock 2.42 s before it hits the ground?
C: How far horizontally from the cliff, in meters, is the rock 2.42 s before it hits the ground?
