Question

If you drop an object from a height of 1.8 m, it will hit the ground in 0.61 s. If you throw a baseball horizontally with an initial speed of 16 m/s from the same height, how long will it take the ball to hit the ground? answer in: ___s

Answer 1

Same time = 0.61 s

It falls from the same height, and the vertical component of the object's velocity is affected in the same way by the gravity independent of the horizontal component.
