A projectile is launched with an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s @ 30.0° from ground level. What is the displacement of the object in the x-direction upon returning to the ground? A projectile is launched off of a cliff, 20.0 m above ground level. If the initial velocity is 15.0 m/s i (there is no initial y-component), how long is it in the air for?
