(iii) A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building, 100 feet above the ground, at a speed of 64 feet per second, Assuming that the acceleration downward due to gravity is 32 feet/sec/sec and the ball trav- els freely until it hits the ground, and neglecting air resistance, figure out how long it takes to hit the ground and the horizontal distance it travels. If instead of being thrown horizontally the ball is thrown at some angle (with respect to the horizontal) , solve the same problem in terms of the angle.
