Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 4: Projectile Motion**
A ball travels horizontally off a table 1.0 meter above the ground with a velocity of 1.51 m/s. If the ball is to travel through the center of a hoop which is placed 0.20 meters above the ground, how far (\(x_f\)) from the base of the table should the center of the hoop be placed? (Hint: use the Projectile Motion Equations).
**Diagram Explanation:**
- The diagram on the right illustrates the problem setup.
- A ball is shown rolling off a table, depicted as a vertical rectangle, 1.0 meter high.
- The initial horizontal velocity of the ball (\(v_{i, ball}\)) is labeled as 1.51 m/s.
- Below the tabletop, the vertical distance is labeled as \(h_{table} = 1.0 \, m\).
- A hoop is depicted to the right of the table, floating above the ground, with its center 0.20 meters above the ground (\(h_{hoop} = 0.20 \, m\)).
- The horizontal distance from the base of the table to the center of the hoop is labeled \(x_f = ?\), indicating that this is the distance that needs to be calculated.
**Objective:**
Calculate \(x_f\), the horizontal distance from the base of the table to the center of the hoop, using projectile motion equations.
