A roadrunner is cruising at 11 m/s without knowing the road under its feet is about to run out, at the edge of a cliff, some 30 m above a flat valley below. Fortunately a roadrunner CAN fly so it just flew away. If indeed the roadrunner couldn't fly and would not be affected by air drag, how far horizontally from the cliff will it hit the valley (flat) below?
Can you help me with this question? A motocyclist drives his bike off of a 12 m high horizontal ledge. If he is driving at a speed of 22 m/s horizontally, how far from the base of the ledge does he land?
