K got to do test corrections, and i just need help on this one.
A solid sphere released from rest rolls down a ramp, dropping through a vertical height of 0.61m. The ball leaves the bottom of the ramp, which is 1.22m above the floor (moving horizontally). What distance does the ball move in the horizontal direction before landing?
I used the conservation of energy equation (Ek + Ep = Ek + Ep) to find the velocity of the ball. V = 3.45 m/s
I also got the time it took t = 0.49 s
Cant figure out the distance for some reason. lol
