A tennis ball is struck horizontally with an initial velocity of 20 m/s, and it hits the ground 1.5 seconds later. How far away does it land? From what initial height was the ball
struck?

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length (in m) of a column of water 1.45 km high for a temperature increase of 1.12°c. assume the column is not free to expand sideways. as a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to
