😕Is there any way i can find a solution for opted questions?
I would like to get explanation for physics part?
thank you oin advance.

can anyone solve below two opted questions?
16. a ball is horizontally thrown at 20m/s from the top of a building and strikes the level ground 50 m from the building. how many meters high is the roof of the building?
I think you would care for the explanation to 2...so here it is.
+a ball is thrown horizontally 20m/s...this means that V0x = 20m/s
+from the top of a building...if we draw a diagram...label the building "h" for height.
+it strikes ground 50m away from the building...so that means if we take our coordinate system origin at the building (0,0)..then the change X-X0 = 50.
To find how high the building is...we have to look back to one of the kinematic equations. We should first find out the time it took to strike the ground.
1) x-x0 = Vox * t
50m = 20m/s * t --> the "m" cancels...we have [5/2 s = t]
Now that we have the time, we can use the kinematic equation that allows us to find height H, in terms of y-y0
2) y-y0 = V0y*t + 1/2*g*t^2
we know that y-y0 is going to be the height...so we can replace that with "h"
h=v0y*t + 1/2*g*t^2
v0y = 0....the ball was released horizontally only...which means it only has a horizontal component, v0y is a vertical component...you can also see this because gravity takes over after its initial 20m/s horizontal.
h= 0 + 4.9m/s^2 (5/2s)^2 --> the seconds cancel out
h=30.6 m
