AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of the motorcycle stunt rider riding off the edge of a cliff, we will analyze the motion in two dimensions: horizontal and vertical. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Initial Conditions:** - The initial horizontal velocity (\(u_x\)) of the motorcycle is given as \(9.0 \, \text{m/s}\). - The initial vertical velocity (\(u_y\)) is \(0 \, \text{m/s}\) since the motorcycle is moving horizontally at the edge of the cliff. ...
