A motorcycle daredevil jumps off a 33.0 ramp at 20.3 m/s. The landing ramp is at the same height, 28.0 m away. What is the height of the motorcycle when it reaches the landing ramp? (Unit = m)

The height of the motorcycle daredevil when it reaches the landing ramp is 4.93 m.

Since the ramp is a 33.0° ramp and the motorcycle daredevil jumps off with a speed of 20.3 m/s, the motorcycle dare devil has a horizontal component of speed u = 20.3cos33.0° m/s and a vertical component of speed v = 20.3sin33.0° m/s.

Now, since the other ramp is d = 28.0 m away, it takes the time it takes the motorcycle dare devil to reach it is t.

Considering motion in the horizontal direction, d = ut.

Thus, t = d/u

= 28.0 m/20.3cos33.0° m/s

= 28.0 m/(20.3 × 0.8387) m/s

= 28.0 m/17.025 m/s

= 1.645 s

Let h be the height of the motorcycle daredevil when it reaches the landing ramp in time, t.

Considering the vertical motion and using h = vt - 1/2gt² where v = vertical velocity of motorcycle daredevil = 20.3sin33.0°, t = time taken to reach landing ramp = 1.645 s and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² (Note that there is a negative in front of g since it is directed downwards)

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

h = vt - 1/2gt²

h = 20.3sin33.0° m/s × 1.645 s - 1/2 × 9.8 m/s² × (1.645 s)²  

h = 20.3 × 0.5446 m/s × 1.645 s - 1/2 × 9.8 m/s² × 2.706025 s²

h = 18.187 m - 1/2 × 26.519 m

h = 18.187 m - 13.26 m

h = 4.927

h ≅ 4.93 m

So, the height of the motorcycle daredevil when it reaches the landing ramp is 4.93 m.

when jerome paddle in flowing river towards east the net speed of jerome will increase

so the net speed of jerome will be given as

now the speed of paul will be same as it is given as he is running on the ground

so

so here we can say since the speed of jerome is more so he will win the race

now as we know the distance so the time difference is given as

so jerome will reach first and the time difference will be 203.55 s or 3.4 min
