A car is parked on a cliff overlooking the
ocean on an incline that makes an angle of 21
below the horizontal. The negligent driver
leaves the car in neutral, and the emergency
brakes are defective. The car rolls from rest
down the incline with a constant acceleration
of 4.9 m/s2 and travels 41 m to the edge of
the cliff. The cliff is 24 m above the ocean.
How long is the car in the air? The acceler-
ation of gravity is 9.81 m/s2 .
