Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
In horizontal projectile motion,
Horizontal component of velocity,
$u _ {x} = u = 1 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Vertical component of velocity,
$u _ {y} = g t = 1 0 \times 1 = 1 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Horizontal displacement
$= u \times t = 1 0 \times (1) = 1 0 \mathrm{m}$
Vertical displacement = $\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}=\frac{1}{2}\times10\times(1)^{2}=5m$
Horizontal component of velocity,
$u _ {x} = u = 1 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Vertical component of velocity,
$u _ {y} = g t = 1 0 \times 1 = 1 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Horizontal displacement
$= u \times t = 1 0 \times (1) = 1 0 \mathrm{m}$
Vertical displacement = $\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}=\frac{1}{2}\times10\times(1)^{2}=5m$
