SOLVED:Cliff divers Divers in Acapulco fall 36 m from a cliff into the water, Estimate their speed when they enter the water and the time interval needed to reach the water. What assumption did you make? Does this assumption make the calculated speed larger or smaller than actual speed?

The cliff divers of Acapulco push off horizontally from rock platforms about 35 m above the water, but they must clear rocky outcrops at water level that extend out into the water 5.0 m from the base of the cliff directly under their launch point. See Fig. 3-44 . What minimum pushoff speed is necessary to clear the rocks? How long are they in the air? | Numerade
