A ball rolls horizontally off the edge of a tabletop that is 1.0m high. It strikes the floor at a point 1.5m horizontally away from the edge of the table. Find the speed when the ball left the table.

Find the time it takes to fall 1 meter. Then, you have that time for the horizontal velocity to act, you are given the distance, solve for the horizontal velocity

It's a two step problem dividing the problem by the coordinates x and y. The horizontal velocity (initial velocity) is 3.33m/s. 5 years late haha.
