As the ball is thrown horizontally with velocity u=12ms its initial vertical component will be zero and the time taken for free fall of height, h=28m under gravity will be its time (t) required to land.

So h=12gt2
t=2hg=2289.82.39s

During this time of fall the horizontal component will remain undiminished,supposing no resistance of air.So the horizontal diatance traversed during this time of fall will be

S=u×t=12×2.39m28.68m
