Homework Statement
A car drives off a 50 m high cliff with a horizontal velocity of 20 m/s. How far from the base of the cliff will the car strike the ground? Assume there is no air resistance and the ground is level at the base of the cliff.
20 m
50 m
64 m
100 m
Homework Equations
20 m/s = square root -9.8/(2)(-50 m)
64.5 m
20 = (.31)(64.5)
20 = 20
The Attempt at a Solution
the car will strike the ground 64.5 or 64 meters away from the base of the cliff.
would that be correct and did I use the proper formulas?
