Answer:
He barely makes it but hit his leg on the pool edge.
Explanation:
Using kinematic formula: Δx=[tex]v_{0}t+(1/2)at^2[/tex]
We can plug in delta x, v zero, and acceleration.
delta x = 8 meters, v0 = 0. a = 9.8
8=(1/2)9.8*t^2
Around 1.278 seconds of airtime.
4 * 1.278 = 5.112 meters horizontally assuming no air resistance
That was close!
