The ball is thrown HORIZONTALLY, so the initial vertical velocity = 0 m/s and the initial horizontal velocity = 25 m/s.
1 The ball's 'x' position is given by x = x0 + v0t x0=0 vo=25 (there is no 'a' in the x direction)
2 The ball's 'y' position is y = yo + vot + 1/2 a t^2 where yo=63 vo=0 a = -9.8 m/s^2
Use 2 to find t when y = 0 (when the ball hits the ground)
t = 3.59 s
Use this time to find the x distance the ball travels before hitting the ground (equation 1)
x = 25(3.59) = 89.64 m
3 Velocity when it hits the ground will be BOTH an x velocity and a y velocity.
the x velocity is given as 25 m/s
the y velocity is given by vy = vo + at v0= 0 a = -9.8 m/s^2 t = 3.59 s
vy = -9.8(3.59) = -35.18 m/s
'VECTORIALLY' add x and y together to get the velocity MAGNITUDE sqrt(25^2 + 35.18^2)= 43.16 m/s
