A toy car in the figure below runs off the edge of a table that is h = 1.150 m high. The car lands d = 0.410 m from the base of the table.

Answer 1

h = 1.150 m.
Dx = 0.410 m.

a. h = 0.5g*t^2 = 1.150
4.9*t^2 = 1.150
t^2 = 0.235
Tf = 0.484 s. = Fall time.

b. Dx = Xo*Tf = 0.410 m.
Xo * 0.484 = 0.410
Xo = 0.846 m/s. = Speed across table.
