Answer:
Velocity = 4.33[m/s]
Explanation:
The total energy or mechanical energy is the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy, as it is known the velocity and the height, we can determine the total energy.
![E_{M}=E_{p} + E_{k} \\E_{p} = potential energy [J]\\E_{k} = kinetic energy [J]\\where:\\E_{p} =m*g*h\\E_{p} = 4*9.81*0.5=19.62[J]\\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *4*(3)^{2} \\E_{k}=18[J]\\Therefore\\E_{M} =18+19.62\\E_{M}=37.62[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7BM%7D%3DE_%7Bp%7D%20%20%2B%20E_%7Bk%7D%20%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%20potential%20energy%20%5BJ%5D%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%20%3D%20kinetic%20energy%20%5BJ%5D%5C%5Cwhere%3A%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3Dm%2Ag%2Ah%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%204%2A9.81%2A0.5%3D19.62%5BJ%5D%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2Am%2Av%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2A4%2A%283%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5CE_%7Bk%7D%3D18%5BJ%5D%5C%5CTherefore%5C%5CE_%7BM%7D%20%3D18%2B19.62%5C%5CE_%7BM%7D%3D37.62%5BJ%5D)
All this energy will become kinetic energy and we can find the velocity.
![37.62=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\v=\sqrt{\frac{37.62*2}{4} } \\v=4.33[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=37.62%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2Am%2Av%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5Cv%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B37.62%2A2%7D%7B4%7D%20%7D%20%5C%5Cv%3D4.33%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
If it goes 1250km every hour, times 4.2 hours
1250*4.2
5250 km
For the first one, trees are organisms, so it’s B.
The second one,, the heavy percolation and strong winds come from hurricanes. So it’s hurricanes
