Answer:

22.87 m/s

Explanation:

Since the value of the height at which the divers jump off the cliff is not given,

Assuming that the height of the cliff above the ocean at which the divers jump = 26.7 m

Then;

The speed of the divers when they hit the ocean water can be determined by using the formula:

[tex]v^2 = 2gh \\ \\ v= \sqrt{2gh} \\ \\ v = \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times (26.7)} \\ \\ v \simeq 22.87 \ m /s[/tex]
