A 70 gram ball rolls off the edge of a table and falls freely to the floor 122 cm below. While in free fall it moves 40 cm in the horizontal direction. At the instant it leaves the edge it is moving only in the horizontal direction. In the vertical direction, at this instant it is moving neither up nor down so its vertical velocity is zero. For the interval of free fall:
What are its final velocity in the vertical direction and its average velocity in the horizontal direction?
978cm/s, 320cm/s
Assuming zero acceleration in the horizontal direction, what are the vertical and horizontal components of its velocity the instant before striking the floor?
Gravity 9.8m/s
What are its speed and direction of motion at this instant?
320 horizontal and graviy
What is its kinetic energy at this instant?
max
What was its kinetic energy as it left the tabletop?
0
What is the change in its gravitational potential energy from the tabletop to the floor?
9.8m/s
How are the the initial KE, the final KE and the change in PE related?
Final - intial + change in Pe
How much of the final KE is in the horizontal direction and how much in the vertical?
66% verical 33% horizontal

I don't believe any of your answers are correct, though you aren't far off on your answer to the KE vs. PE question. You haven't provided you're reasoning so I cannot tell where you went wrong.
