you throw a ball horizontally off a building with a horizontal velocity of 10 m/s. What is the ball's horizontal velocity 5 seconds later?
10 m/sec
--------------
What is the ball's vertical velocity 5 seconds later?
v = at = 9.8 m/sec/sec * 5 sec = 49 m/sec
-------------
Both answers assume the ball doesn't hit the ground in 5 seconds.
