Suppose you know a golf ball’s horizontal velocity (Vx) and the time it had traveled through the air (t). How could you calculate how far the ball traveled?

Answer:

The answer is "distance = Vx × t"

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how far the golf ball traveled, the formula for velocity can be used, which is

velocity (m/s) = distance (m) ÷ time (s)

Make distance the subject of the formula

distance = velocity × time

Thus, where velocity is Vx and time is t

distance = Vx × t

The unit of the distance will be in meter (m)
