Equations of motion — practice question

A body is launched horizontally. It drops through a vertical distance $y$ and covers a horizontal distance $x$ before reaching the ground. Another body is launched horizontally with the same initial velocity and falls a vertical distance $4y$ before it lands on the ground. Assuming air resistance is negligible, what horizontal distance does the second body cover?

  • A$x$
  • B$2x$
  • C$4x$
  • D$16x$
