Solution Summary

Calculates the distance traveled and velocity of a golf ball that is hit horizontally.

Solution Preview

In the verical direction
y= y0 + Vyo t + 1/2 at^2
yo= 1 m
y= 0 ( as at time t the ball hits the ground which is the origin)
Vyo= initial velocity in y direction = 0 ( as there is no initial velocity imparted in the y direction)
a= acceleration due to gravity = -9.81 ...
