1. In this problem we ignore air resistance. When a glass slides off a horizontal countertop with a speed of 2.10 m/s. It strikes the floor broken in 0.5 s. Find (a) the height of the countertop above the floor; (b) the horizontal distance from the edge of the table to the point where the glass strikes the floor and break; (c) the horizontal and vertical components of the glass's velocity, and the magnitude and direction of its velocity, just before the glass break reaches the floor. (d) Draw x-t, y-t, vxt, and Vyt graphs for the motion.
