Extreme-sports enthusiasts have been known to jump off the top of El Captain, a sheer granite cliff of height 910 m in Yosemite National Park. Assume a jumper runs horizontally off the top of El Captain with speedand enjoys a free fall until she is 150 m above the valley floor, at which time she opens her parachute (Fig. 3-37). (a) How long is the jumper in free fall? Ignore air-resistance. (b) It is important to be as far away from the cliff as possible before opening the parachute. How far from the cliff is this jumper when she opens her chute?
