A ball rolls off the edge of a horizontal tabletop. 4.23 ft high it strikes the floor at the point 5.11 ft horizontal away from the edge of the table for how long was the ball in the air?

Ignoring air resistance, any falling object falls 4.23 feet in the first 0.513 second.The horizontal distance doesn't matter, and we don't need to know it. The time it takes to hitthe floor after it rolls off the edge has nothing to do with how fast it was rolling before it fell.


A book slides off a horizontal table top with a speed of 1.35 meter per sec and strikes the floor at time of 0.400 s so what is the height of the table top above the floor?

Well by using the equation Speed = Distance / Time.So, if the speed is 1.35 m/s and the time is 0.4s, then 1.35 = distance / 0.4by rearranging the equation we get, 1.35 x 0.4 = distance.therefore the distance travelled is 0.54 metres = 54 cm.

A golfer strikes a golf ball at an angle 17 degree above the horizontal. with what velocity must the ball be struck in order to reach the green which is a horizontal distance of 250m from the golfer?

To solve this problem you use the derived formula ∆dh=(V1h2(sin2Ѳ))/g 250m=V1h2(sin2(17))/9.8m/s2 V1h=((sin(17))/9.8m/s2)1/2 V1h= 64.7292201m/s V1h= 65m/s
