Answer:

The bullet would travel 130 m of distance when it leaves a gun with a horizontal velocity of 100 m/s.

Explanation :

We know that the distance traveled by a body in a given time with some velocity is given by-

Distance = speed × time

So, here the distance traveled by the bullet is-

From the given statements, we know

Velocity = 100 m/s [The magnitude is same for velocity and speed]

time = 1.3 s

As we are concerned with the magnitude only

So, Distance = 100 × 1.3 =130 seconds

Answer:

130m

Step-by-step explanation:

You just have to multiply velocity by the distance traveled:

100m/s * 1.3s = 130m!
