Say you threw a ball at angle from the horizontal, with no air resistance. The magnitude of the initial velocity was v. As a function of and v, what is the initial horizontal velocity?
(explain answer please)

Shania is trying to determine the oldest geologic unit on this map and the reason to why is she unable to do so is that  the units are all the same age.. when there is the same age, there will be no oldest geologic unit and that i cannot be credible.

Since you have not included the experiment situation and the data, of course, i can not give you specific details about it. but i can you with this question.1) i will assume that the motion is projectile (parabolic) motion.2) yes, the horizontal distance depends on the horizontal velocity as, naming vx the horizontal velocity and t the time, it is: x = vx × t3) now, observe that the flight time depends on the vertical velocity as, naming voy the initial vertical velocity, t the time and y the vertical distance before reaching the ground: y = yo + voy×t - gt² / 2.the higher the initial vertical velocity (voy) the longer the object will be flying and so t will be higher in the equation for the horizontal distance.that explains the relationship between the horizontal distance and the horizontal velocity.
