Question

A meatball happens to be sneezed off a table from a pile of spaggheti.


The meatball is still in the air 0.2s after rolling off the table. At that instant, its x = 60cm from the edge of the table. What's the meatball's seed the instant it rolled off the table?


I set up by:

Vox = Vx = 300cm/s = x/t = 60/.2

ax =0m/s^2

x=60cm


voy=0m/s

ay=-980cm/s

vy = ?


I found the height it fell at time t = .2s

y = 1/2at^2

=-19.6cm


then I found vy by


y=vyt-1/2at^2

(y+1/2at^2)/t = vy

vy = 196cm/s


since i have the 2 components i used pythag to get 358cm/s which doesnt seem right
