Question

During a high-speed car chase, a gangster's car flies off of a cliff. If it takes 7.15 seconds for the car to reach the ground below, how high is the cliff?

Answer 1

255.61 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use
`s=ut +(1)/(2) at^(2)` in downwards direction from the moment of flight till the car hits the bottom.

As the car fly off the cliff the velocity of the car in vertical direction will be zero.

`h =(1)/(2) 10(7.15)^(2)`

`h=255.61 m`
