The horizontal velocity will be equal to the translational velocity of the ball right before it falls off the table.

==============================

When we do exercises that deal with the behavior of the ball after it leaves

the edge of the table, we always ignore air resistance. When we do that, the

horizontal component of velocity remains constant forever, or at least until the

ball hits something.

A ball rolls off the end of a table with a speed of 2 mpers It hits the ground after 3 s If the tableop is 1 m from the floor what was the horizontal distance from the end of the table traveled by?

Hold up, whoa ! Just wait a second there.If the table-top is 1 meter from the floor, then the ball hits the floor 0.45 seconds after itrolls off the edge of the table. The horizontal speed makes no difference.A cannonball fired horizontally from the cannon and a cannonball dropped from the muzzleof the cannon hit the ground at the same time. Horizontal speed doesn't keep anything upany longer than if it drops straight down with no horizontal speed.If the ball is rolling horizontally along the table at 2 m/s, then it falls to the floor 0.45 secondsafter it reaches the edge, and in that period of time, it sails (2 x 0.45) = 0.9 meter out past theend of the table.


A ball rolled across a horizontal table moves at constant velocity.why?

The ball moves at a constant velocity because there are no external forces acting on it to change its speed or direction. The absence of any net force means there is no acceleration, allowing the ball to maintain a steady velocity. This state of motion is in accordance with Newton's First Law of Motion.


Why does a ball move in a straight line rolling on a table but follows a curved path once it rolls off?

The curved path is the result of gravity and inertia acting on the ball. As it leaves the table gravity pulls it to the ground at an increasing rate while inertia keeps it moving in its original direction. The table prevents the rolling ball from falling thus negating that curvature caused by gravity, and making it follow a straight line.


If a ball rolls off the edge of a table two meters above the floor and with an initial velocity of 20 meters per second what is the ball?

The time it takes for the ball to hit the floor is approximately 0.64 seconds.


What is the momentum of a 25 kg table?

To calculate momentum, you need both the mass and velocity of the object. If you provide the velocity of the table, we can calculate the momentum using the formula: momentum = mass x velocity.

How fast must a ball be rolled along the surface of a 70cm high table so that when it rolls off the edge it will strike the floor at the same distance from the point directly below the edge of table?

(ignoring air resistance.) s = 0.7 metres take g = 9.82 (m / s) / s time to fall 0.7 metres, regardless of horizontal velocity, t = (sq. root (s / (0.5 * g))) = 0.3776 seconds so constant horizontal velocity required to travel 0.7 metres in 0.3776 seconds = 0.7 / 0.3776 = 1.854 metres / second
