Physics

To find t the time the projectile spent in the air, we can use the equation of motion for vertical projectile motion:

Vertical displacement = Initial vertical velocity * Time + (1/2) * Acceleration due to gravity * Time²

In this case, the vertical displacement is given as 1.7 meters, the initial vertical velocity is zero (sinceball rolls off a table as horizontally), and the acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.8 m/s²

Plugging in the values, we have:<...
