Explanation:
The horizontal motion of the projectile is a uniform motion with constant speed, since there are no forces acting along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the horizontal acceleration is zero.
The horizontal component of the velocity of the projectile is
and it is constant during the motion;
the total time of flight is
t = 5 s
Therefore, we can apply the formula of the uniform motion to find the horizontal displacement of the projectile:
