Against the park ranger's advice, a visitor at a national park throws a stone horizontally off the edge of a 85 m high cliff and it lands a distance of 90 m from the edge of the cliff, narrowly missing a visitor below. What was the initial horizontal velocity of the rock, in m/s? You can round your answer to the hundredths place and use g = 10 m/s?. Answer: m/s

You encounter a moving walkway that is 81 m long and has a speed of 2.1 m/s relative to the ground. How long would it take you to cover the 81 m length of the walkway if, once you get on the walkway, you immediately turn around and start walking in the opposite direction with a speed of 1.6 m/s relative to the walkway? Express your answer using one significant figure.

A skateboarder riding on a level surface at a constant speed of 10 ft/s throws a ball in the air straight up. The height of which can be described by the equation h(t)=−16t2+11t+1 feet where t is the number of seconds since the ball was thrown.(The ball continues traveling horizontally at the speed of the skateboarder.)Let x be the horizontal distance traveled by the ball at time tt seconds. The parametric equations for this situation is given by:x(t)=__________h(t)=−16t2+11t+1Now eliminate the parameter, t, to write the height, h, as a function of horizontal position, x, where xx is the horizontal distance traveled since the ball was thrown.The resulting equation can be written ash(x)= _________
