After a ball rolls off the edge of a horizontal table at time t = 0, its velocity as a function of time is given by
where
To perform the integral, you can use the calculus theorem
You can think of the units and unit vectors as constants, represented by A and B. Perform the integration to calculate the displacement of the ball from the edge of the table at 0.380 s.
