In 1780, in what is now referred to as "Brady's Leap," Captain SamBrady of the U.S. Continental Army escaped certain death from hisenemies by running over the edge of the cliff above Ohio's CuyahogaRiver, which is confined at that spot to a gorge. He landed safelyon the far side of the river. It was reported that he leap 22 feetacross while falling 20 feet.
-Representing the horizontal distance jumped as L and the verticaldrop as h , as shown in the figure, derive an expression for theminimum speed v he would need to make his leap if he ran straightoff the cliff?
