A ball is projected horizontally with a velocity of \(5 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) from the top of a building \(19.6 \mathrm{~m}\) high. How long will the ball take of hit the ground?

  1. A \(\sqrt{2} \mathrm{~s}\)
  2. B \(2 \mathrm{~s}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{3} \mathrm{~s}\)
  4. D \(3 \mathrm{~s}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2 \mathrm{~s}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hints: \(\mathrm{T}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \mathrm{H}}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \times 19.6}{9.8}}=2 \mathrm{sec}\)
