vertical displacement!? help anyone. =]
i have no idea wat to do!??
In a scene in an action movie, a stunt man
jumps from the top of one building to the
top of another building 3.9 m away. After a
running start, he leaps at an angle of 13◦ with
respect to the flat roof while traveling at a
speed of 5.9 m/s.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s2 .
To determine if he will make it to the other
roof, which is 1.3 m shorter than the build-
ing from which he jumps, find his vertical
displacement upon reaching the front edge of
the lower building with respect to the taller
building. Answer in units of m.
