During the filming of an adventure movie, the 55.0-kg heroine makes a flying leap, grabbing her 70.0-kg partner as he stands on the edge of a building. The building is 20.0 m high, and after the collision the pair fall together of the building with an initial velocity that is horizontal. In the stunt, the pair are to fall into a swimming pool below. The near edge of the pool is 3.00 m from the wall of the building and the far edge is 15.0 m from the wall. a. What speed must the heroine (before collision) have in order for the pair to land in the center of the pool? b. lesiWhat are the limits of her speed (before collision) resulting in a reasonably safe landing (1.00 m from either edge)?

An 1800-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel beam into the ground.
