An object rolls off a tabletop with a horizontal velocity Vox = 12 m/s. The table is at a height yo = 0.65 m above the floor. Use a coordinate system with its origin on the floor directly beneath the point where the object rolls off the table, it’s horizontal x-axis lying directly beneath the objects trajectory, and it’s vertical y-axis pointing up.
a. How long, in seconds, is the object falling before it hits the floor?
b. What’s the horizontal distance, in meters from the edge of the tabletop to where the object lands?
c. What is the vertical component of velocity, in meters per second, when the object hits the ground?
d. What is the magnitude of velocity when it hits the floor?
