A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 0.750 m/s leaves the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high and falls into a pool (Fig. P3.54). (a) How far from the wall will the water land? Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model? Figure P3.54

A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of v0 = 22.0 m/s. The cliff is h = 37.0 m above a flat, horizontal beach as shown in the figure.(d) Write the equations for the position of the stone with time, using the coordinates in the figure. (Use the following as necessary: t. Let the variable t be measured in seconds. Do not state units in your answer.) x = y = (e) How long after being released does the stone strike the beach below the cliff? s(f) With what speed and angle of impact does the stone land? vf = m/s ? = ° below the horizontal

What distance from the student is the lightning strike, in meters? Light travels at 3.0 × 108 m/s in the air. How long, t1, in seconds did it take the light to reach the student's eyes after the lightning strike?
Suppose the caravan of 10 cars begins immediately in front of the first toll booth, travels 20 km to a second toll booth, then another 40 km to a third toll booth, and finally stops immediately after the third tool booth. Thus, they travel a total of 60 km. What is the total end-to-end delay? Where is the last car in the caravan after one hour? Your answer must include a distance/specific location, and not only a relative direction.
