A baseball is thrown horizontally from the top of a cliff 50 meters up. The initial velocity of the ball is 10 m/s. How far from the base of the cliff will the ball land?

1 answer

how long to fall 50 meters?

d = 4.9 t^2
t = sqrt(50/4.9) = 3.19 seconds
so how far did it go horizontally?
d = u t = 10 * 3.19
= 31.9 meters
