**Transcription for Educational Website:**---**Question 2:**In Figure 2, someone is throwing a rock off a cliff. Suppose that this person wants the rock to hit the plain without hitting the dam or lake. To accomplish this, what is the minimum speed with which she must throw the rock? How far from the dam does the rock land?---**Figure 2 Explanation:**The diagram depicts a scenario where a person is standing on a cliff that is 20.0 meters high and is throwing a rock horizontally. The rock's initial velocity is shown as \( v_0 \). Below the cliff, there is a lake with a horizontal distance of 100.0 meters to the opposite shore, where there is a dam. The dam is followed by a plain, which is 25.0 meters below the top of the dam.- **Cliff Height:** 20.0 meters- **Lake Width:** 100.0 meters- **Dam Height above Plain:** 25.0 metersThe objective is for the rock to clear the dam and the lake, eventually landing on the plain. The aim is to find the necessary initial speed (\( v_0 \)) for this to happen and to determine how far beyond the dam the rock lands.---

Concept explainers

Centripetal Force

A particle, body, object or certain mass while travelling in a rotational path or semicircular path, experiences an inertia force. If that inertia force pulls the towards the inward of the imaginary circle in the rotation, it is termed as centripetal force.

Your nephew got a Nerf Bazooka gun for Christmas, so you take it outside to play with it (just like my uncles did when I was little). The bazooka is on your shoulder, 1.5 m above the ground. You aim the gun 25° above the horizontal and the big, foam projectile leaves the gun with an initial velocity of 36 m You accidentally aim the bazooka at a tree that is a horizontal distance of 27 m away. How long does it take for the projectile to hit the tree? t = How high (above the ground) in the tree does the projectile get stuck? hfinal = m Imagine you were more clever and aimed into an empty field with no obstructions. You can control how fast the projectile leaves the gun by pumping more times or fewer times (more pumps = faster projectile). What are TWO ways you could increase the amount of time that the projectile is in the air?
Keerat and Jenna are trying to drop a round melon (0.40kg) off the roof of the school 15 m tall onto a target on the ground.

They do a few trials to find that the melon rolls 5.0 m in an average of 3.4 seconds. How far away should the target be so that the melon hits it?
