A squirrel tosses an acorn with a horizontal velocity of +2m/s outward from a tree branch that is 8.0m above?

the ground.How long is the acorn falling through the air?What is the acorn's vertical component of velocity when it reaches the groung?How far(horizontally)from the point on the ground directly under the squirrel does the acorn land?A squirrel tosses an acorn with a horizontal velocity of +2m/s outward from a tree branch that is 8.0m above?
time = sqrt(8 * 2/9.8) = 1.3 seconds





verticle velocity = 9.8 m/s^2 / 1.3 s = 7.5 m/s





distance horizontal = 2 m/s X 1.3 s = 2.6 m
