Answer:
Final Speed of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson = 15.812 m/s
Explanation:
Let's start out with finding the force acting downwards because of the mass of 'The Rock':
Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson: 118kg x 9.81m/s = 1157.58 N
Now the problem also states that the kinetic friction of the desk in this problem is 370 N
Since the pulley is smooth, the weight of Dwayne Johnson being transferred fully, and pulls the desk with a force of 1157.58 N. The frictional force of the desk is resisting this motion by a force of 370 N. Subtracting both forces we get the resultant force on the desk to be: 1157.58 - 370 = 787.58 N
Now lets use F = ma to calculate for the acceleration of the desk:
787.58 = 63 x acceleration
acceleration = 12.501 m/s
Finally, we can use the motion equation:

here u = 0 m/s (since initial speed of the desk is 0)
a = 12.501 m/s
and s = 10 m
Solving this we get:


Since the desk and Mr. Dwayne Johnson are connected by a taught rope, they are travelling at the same speed. Thus, Dwayne also travels at 15.812 m/s when the desk reaches the window.
This is most likely True. However, it could be also False. Let me explain.
There are many air pollutants that can be found outdoors and indoors. It does depend on what kind of indoor environment we're talking about. And also what kind of outdoor environment we're talking about. In both cases it depends on the context. If the indoor environment is quite toxic, then of course, there would be less cancer-causing air pollutants for a person outside. And the same is true for the other way around.
B. An apple about to fall from a tree branch
This is because potential energy is the energy before its actuall motion, or before kinetic energy (energy in motion). And the apple ABOUT TO FALL mentions a gravitational example.
