Question
What is the horizontal component of velocity at the instant the ball is thrown?
Answer:
23 m/s
Explanation:
Velocity is given by diatance per unit time. In this case, the horizontal distance is 15 m and time is given as 0.65 s hence substituting the above figures for velocity, we obtain that v=23/0.65=23.076923076923 m/s
Rounded off, the horizontal velocity component is approximately 23 m/s
