A marble with speed 20 cm/s rolls off the edge of a table 80 cm high. How long does it take to drop to the floor? How far horizontally from the table edge does the marble strike the floor?
8.0 cm
vox=v0=20 cm/s
voy=0
ay=+g=+980 cm/s2
ax=0
To find time of fall, y=v0yt+12gt2
80 cm=0+(490 cm/s2)t2
t=0.40 sec
x=voxt=(20 cm/s)(0.40 s)=8.0 cm
