A marble rolling with speed 20cm/s rolls off the edge of a table that is 80cm high. How far horizontally from the table edge does the marble strike the floor

8 cm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 20 cm/s

Height (h) = 80 cm

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for marble to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) = 80 cm

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 1000 cm/s²

Time (t) =?

t = √(2h/g)

t = √[(2 × 80)/1000]

t = √(160/1000)

T = √0.16

t = 0.4 s

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the marble. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Initial velocity (u) = 20 cm/s

Time (t) = 0.4 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 20 × 0.4

s = 8 cm

Thus, the horizontal distance travelled by the marble is 8 cm.
