3.9 • A physics book slides off a horizontal tabletop with a speed of 1.10 m/s. It strikes the floor in 0.480 s. Ignore air resistance. Find (a) the height of the tabletop above the floor; (b) the horizon- tal distance from the edge of the table to the point where the book strikes the floor; (c) the horizontal and vertical components of the book's velocity, and the magnitude and direction of its velocity, just before the book reaches the floor. (d) Draw x-t, y-t, U̟-t, and Uy-t graphs for the motion.

3.9 • A physics book slides off a horizontal tabletop with a speed
of 1.10 m/s. It strikes the floor in 0.480 s. Ignore air resistance.
Find (a) the height of the tabletop above the floor; (b) the horizon-
tal distance from the edge of the table to the point where the book
strikes the floor; (c) the horizontal and vertical components of the
book's velocity, and the magnitude and direction of its velocity,
just before the book reaches the floor. (d) Draw x-t, y-t, v̟-t, and
Vy-t graphs for the motion.
