If its not Distance traveled then its energy
It has to do with we're the water is coming from and we're it's at like city or town
When t=2, the ball has fallen d(2) = 16 (2²) = 64 feet .
When t=5, the ball has fallen d(5) = 16 (5²) = 400 feet .
Distance fallen from t=2 until t=5 is (400 - 64) = 336 feet.
Time period between t=2 until t=5 is (5 - 2) = 3 seconds.
Average speed of the ball from t=2 until t=5 is
(distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
= 336 feet / 3 seconds = 112 feet per second.
That's what choice-C says.
To answer this question, first we take note that the maximum height that can be reached by an object thrown straight up at a certain speed is calculated through the equation,
Hmax = v²sin²θ/2g
where v is the velocity, θ is the angle (in this case, 90°) and g is the gravitational constant. Since all are known except for v, we can then solve for v whichi s the initial velocity of the projectile.
Once we have the value of v, we multiply this by the total time traveled by the projectile to solve for the value of the range (that is the total horizontal distance).
