A ball is thrown at speed u = 10.0 m/s at an angle of 30.0 degrees to the ground at height, s = 0. How far does the ball travel horizontally from its starting position? (Ignore air resistance and taking g = 9.81 m/s^2)

First, find the speed of the ball in the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) directions. u x = u cos(30) = 8.66m/s and u y = u sin(30) = 5 m/s. Using an appropriate suvat equation find the time until the ball la...
