Vertical motion is symmetrical - the distance and time are the same in the rise as in the fall; the final velocity will have the same magnitude as the initial velocity but in the opposite direction.
Therefore, the vertical motion of the blue ball can be analyzed exactly the same as the vertical motion of the red ball. If an arrow is fired from a bow with a perfectly horizontal velocity of 60.0 m/...Therefore, the vertical motion of the blue ball can be analyzed exactly the same as the vertical motion of the red ball. If an arrow is fired from a bow with a perfectly horizontal velocity of 60.0 m/s and the arrow was 2.00 m above the ground when the it was released, how far will the arrow fly horizontally before it strikes the ground? The time required for the arrow to fall to the ground will be the same time that the arrow flies horizontally at 60.0 m/s, so
