A blueberry pie is shot out of a pie cannon from a height of 6m and with a velocity of 60 m/s. How many seconds will pass before the pie hits the ground?

1.106 s

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation is related to projectile motion and one the equation that models the height of the blueberry pie in time is:

Where:

is the blueberry pie final height (when it hits the ground)

is the blueberry pie initial height

is the blueberry pie initial velocity

is the angle, assuming the pie was shot horizontally

is the time

is the acceleration due gravity

Rewriting the equation:

Isolating :

Finally:
