The diamond will fall 243 m far from the base of the cliff.

Explanation:

As the diamond is thrown off the cliff, the diamond will follow a projectile path with free fall. So the velocity component will be splitted as horizontal and vertical velocity. The horizontal component of velocity will remain constant as given at 27 m/s but the vertical velocity will be varying at the rate of 9.8 m/s as the diamond will be reaching the ground due to free fall.

So gravity will act upon the diamond leading to exhibit acceleration due to gravity will falling. Thus with the help of second equation of motion, we can determine the time taken by the diamond to reach the ground from a height of 413.8 m.

As the second equation of motion is

$s=u t+\frac{1}{2} a t^{2}$

As the initial velocity of the diamond before thrown is zero, u = 0 and as the diamond is exhibiting a free fall, so acceleration a will be equal to acceleration due to gravity g. And the displacement performed by the diamond will be equal to the height of the cliff.

Thus,

$413.8=(0 \times t)+\left(\frac{1}{2} \times g \times t^{2}\right)$

$413.8=\left(\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times t^{2}\right)$

$t^{2}=\frac{413.8 \times 2}{9.8}=84.44$

Thus, the time taken for crossing the cliff is t = 9 s.

Now the distance at which the diamond falls far from the base of the cliff can be found as

$\begin{aligned} \text { Distance of diamond from base of the cliff} \\=& \text {Horizontal velocity} \times \text {Time taken to reach ground} \end{aligned}$

Thus,

$\text { Distance }=27 \times 9=243 \mathrm{m}$

Answer

the order for strong to weak forces such as

strong nuclear force → electromegnetic force → weak nuclear force → gravitational force

explanation

the fundamental forces are those forces that act between to objects or element to make interactions. there are four types of fundamental forces such as strong and weak nuclear forces (due to protons and electrons), electromagnetic force (due to the motion of electrons) and gravitational force (due to orbital movement of the planet). if these forces are arranged on the basis of their maximum strength then the order is

strong nuclear force → electromegnetic force → weak nuclear force → gravitational force
