### Projectile Motion: Sphere Rolling Down an Elevated Track#### Problem StatementA sphere rolls down an elevated track and becomes airborne. The diagram illustrates the path of the sphere from the point it leaves the track (height \( h_1 \)) to where it lands (height \( h_2 \)). The range of travel is the horizontal distance the sphere covers while airborne.#### Given Data- Height-1 (\( h_1 \)): 0.32 m- Height-2 (\( h_2 \)): 1.14 m#### ObjectiveDetermine the range of travel (distance) for the ball after it has launched from the track. Provide your answer in meters.##### Diagram ExplanationIn the provided diagram:- The left vertical section represents the initial height \( h_1 \), where the sphere is rolling off the track.- The projectile path is shown with a dashed parabola, depicting the sphere's trajectory as it travels towards the ground.- The right vertical section represents the final height \( h_2 \), where the sphere lands.- The horizontal distance between the initial and final heights is labeled “Range”, which is the value to be determined.#### TaskUsing the provided heights \( h_1 \) and \( h_2 \), calculate the horizontal distance the sphere travels after being launched from the track. Apply principles from projectile motion to solve this problem, considering factors such as initial velocity, acceleration due to gravity, and time of flight.#### ConclusionUpon finding the range, submit your answer in meters.---This problem helps in understanding projectile motion, an important concept in physics that deals with the trajectory of objects under the influence of gravity. It combines elements of kinematics and dynamics, offering practical insight into how objects move through space.
