Given data
*The given initial speed is u = 0 m/s
*The given distance is s = 20 m
*The value of the acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.01 m/s^2
The formula for the final speed of the ball at a distance of 20 m is given by the kinematic equation of motion as
[tex]v^2=u^2+2gs[/tex]Substitute the known values in the above expression as
[tex]\begin{gathered} v^2=(0)^2+2(9.01)(20) \\ v^2=\text{36}0.04 \\ v=18.98\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the speed of the ball at a distance of 20 m is v = 18.98 m/s
