Physics

To find the coordinate of point C based on the data provided, we can use the relationship between the horizontal and vertical motion of the ball.

Given Points:

A (0, 0)

B (15 cm, 20 cm)

C (x cm, 45 cm)

Determine the time to reach point B

Using the vertical motion equation:

Where (or for our units). The height at point B is 20 cm.

 

 

Calculate the horizontal distance to point B

The horizontal distance to point B is given as 15 cm, and we can find the horizontal velocity:
