.A coin rolls off the edge of a table. The coin
was travelling with a speed of 1.7 m/s. It lands 0.8 m away from the table leg (which is
straight down from the table edge). How high is the table?

Answer:

Apply the following formulae horizontally And get A value for time

Remember horizontal acceleration is zero

[tex]s = ut + \frac{1}{2}a {t}^{2} \\ 0.8 = 1.7 \times t \\ \frac{0.8}{1.7} = t \\ t = 0.47s[/tex]

and then to find the height apply the same above equation vertically...remember vertical initial velocity is zero

[tex]s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2} \\ s = \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times (0.47) ^{2} \\ s = 1.1045m[/tex]
