A rock is thrown from a cliff and hits the ground 5 seconds later at a distance of 50 meters from the cliff How high was the cliff?

Assuming you throw the rock horizontally off the cliff it drops down at the acceletrtion of gravity. height= 1/2 gt^2 With g = 9.8 m/sec and t = 5 seconds we have height = (1/2) (9.8)(5)(5) = 122.5 meters notice it has nothing todo with the 50 meter distance, which depends on the horizontal velocity.

Is a cliff straight or curved?

The answer is, it can be either one. What distinguishes a cliff from (for example) a mountain is the angle of the slope: in other words, how quickly the land drops off. Since cliffs generally follow the coastline where they're formed, the edge of the cliff can be either straight or curved; and the face of the cliff can be flat, jagged, or even rounded under.


Why does pressure drops in a nozzle?

By Bernoulli's principle velocity head x pressure head is always constant So as velocity increases at the nozzle the pressure falls down automatically.
