![Speed (km/h)
Height (m)

Part 1: (horizontal projectile)
A car traveling at 86.0 km/h goes straight over a cliff that is a height of 15.7 m.
Calculate how far from the base of the cliff (ie. distance D) that the car lands.
Part 2: (braking & horizontal projectile)
A stunt car driver, travelling at 86.0 km/h, notices that he is heading directly for a
cliff! When he is 23.6 m away from the edge, he applies the brakes and
experiences a backward acceleration of 6.80 m/s?, but it is not enough! The car
goes over the cliff! If the cliff is 15.7 m high, then calculate how far the from the
base of the cliff (ie. distance D) that the car lands.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F9e4bd2f3-33e9-472f-85ef-1117dca61d33%2F50ba6515-9b33-4533-b3a1-0a0102cf5887%2Fp8gpt8t_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
