Complete Question

A baseball is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of 10 m/s from the edge of a cliff. A stop watch measures the ball's time in the air until it hits the ground to be 4.3 s. How far does the baseball travel horizontally?

Answer:

The distance covered horizontally is  d =  43 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The initial horizontal velocity is  u = 10 \ m/s

     The time taken by the ball in the air is  t = 4.3 \ s

Generally the distance traveled by the ball is  

       d =  u  *  t

=>     d =   10 * 4.3

=>     d =  43 \ m

Rufina [12.5K]
This is a classic example of conservation of energy. Assuming that there are no losses due to friction with air we'll proceed by saying that the total energy mus be conserved.
E_m=E_k+E_p
Now having information on the speed at the lowest point we can say that the energy of the system at this point is purely kinetic:
E_m=Ek=\frac{1}{2}mv^2
Where m is the mass of the pendulum. Because of conservation of energy, the total energy at maximum height won't change, but at this point the energy will be purely potential energy instead.
E_m=E_p
This is the part where we exploit the Energy's conservation, I'm really insisting on this fact right here but it's very very important, The totam energy Em was
E_M=\frac{1}{2}mv^2
It hasn't changed! So inserting this into the equation relating the total energy at the highest point we'll have:
E_p=mgh=E_m=\frac{1}{2}mv^2
Solving for h gives us:
h=\frac{v^2}{2g}.
It doesn't depend on mass!

Lisa [10]

Answer:

I may not have the answer so i'll just give up some hints.

Multiply the time by the acceleration due to gravity to find the velocity when the object hits the ground. If it takes 9.9 seconds for the object to hit the ground, its velocity is (1.01 s)*(9.8 m/s^2), or 9.9 m/s. Choose how long the object is falling. In this example, we will use the time of 8 seconds. Calculate the final free fall speed (just before hitting the ground) with the formula v = v₀ + gt = 0 + 9.80665 * 8 = 78.45 m/s . Find the free fall distance using the equation s = (1/2)gt² = 0.5 * 9.80665 * 8² = 313.8 m .h = 0.5 * 9.8 * (1.5)^2 = 11m. b. V = gt = 9.8 * 1.5 = 14.7m/s. A feather and brick dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly. If a feather and a brick were dropped together in a vacuum—that is, an area from which all air has been removed—they would fall at the same rate, and hit the ground at the same time.When an object's point is taller the thing that is going down it will go faster than when the point is lower. EXAMPLE: The object is the tennis ball if you drop it down the higher hill it will be faster than if you drop it down a shorter hill. In other words, if two objects are the same size but one is heavier, the heavier one has greater density than the lighter object. Therefore, when both objects are dropped from the same height and at the same time, the heavier object should hit the ground before the lighter one.

I hope my little bit (big you may say) hint help you with your question.
