[SOLVED] Physics again
A small ball rolls horizontally off the edge of a tabletop that is 1.19 m high. It strikes the floor at a point 1.78 m horizontally away from the edge of the table. (a) How long is the ball in the air? (b) What is its speed at the instant it leaves the table?
x=vcos(x)t
y=vsin(x)t- .5gt^2
I believe those are the right equations that I need, but I have two unknowns in the equation, velocity and time.
