An object is thrown horizontally from the open
window of a building. If the initial speed of the
object is 20 m/s and it hits the ground 2.0 s later,
from what height was it thrown? (Neglect air
resistance and assume the ground is level.)
Initial vertical velocity = 0
formula: s = ut + (1/2)*g*t^2
s = 0 + 1/2*9.8*2^2
s = 9.8*2 = 19.6 m
