Answer:

The horizontal distance traveled by the ball before it hits the ground is 64.42 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

initial velocity, u = 27.0 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 30⁰

The horizontal distance traveled by the ball before it hits the ground is known as Range;


Range = (u^2 sin(2\theta))/(g) \\\\Range = ((27^2)sin(2 * 30))/(9.8) \\\\Range = 64.42 \ m

Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by the ball before it hits the ground is 64.42 m.
