Answer:
The horizontal distance traveled by the water balloons is 47.06 m.
D. 47.06 m
Explanation:
Given;
height of the house, h = 16 m
horizontal velocity of the water balloons, v = 26 m/s
The time taken for the water balloons to hit the ground is given by;
[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2*16}{9.8} }\\\\t = 1.81 \ s[/tex]
The horizontal distance traveled by the water balloons is given by;
x = vt
x = 26 x 1.81
x = 47.06 m
Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by the water balloons is 47.06 m.
