Answer

$5.4\times 10^{-13}\ m$

Work Step by Step

Given The horizontal speed $v_{ox} = 3\times 10^6\ m/s$ The horizontal distance $x=1\ m$ Time require to travel in given distance is: $t = \frac{x}{v_{ox}}$ $t = \frac{1\ m}{3\times 10^6\ m/s}$ $t = 3.33\times10^{-7}\ s$ The vertical displacement is given by: $y =y_o+v_{oy}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$ $y =0+0(t )+ \frac{1}{2}gt^2$ $y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$ $y = \frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times (3.33\times 10^{-7}\ s)^2$ $y=5.4\times 10^{-13}\ m$
