1. Pete plays tennis. When he hits the ball, it is 1.34 m above the ground. He hits it horizontally with an
initial velocity of 7.6 m/s
a. How much time does it take for the ball to hit the ground? (4 points)

In order to find the time taken by the ball to reach the ground, we will analyze the vertical motion of the ball. We will use 2nd equation of motion here:

h = V₀y t + (1/2)gt²

where,

h = height = 1.34 m

V₀y = Vertical Component of Initial Velocity = 0 m/s (since, ball was thrown with horizontal velocity)

t = time taken to reach the ground = ?

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

1.34 m = (0 m/s)t + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)t²

t² = 1.34 m/(4.9 m/s²)

t = √(0.273 s²)

t = 0.52 s
