The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
 Therefore, for conservation of energy we have:
 mgh = (1/2) m * v ^ 2
 From here we clear the speed:
 v = root (2 * g * h)
 The height will then be:
 h = v ^ 2 / (2 * g)
 Substituting the values:
 h = (34) ^ 2 / (2 * (32))
 h = 18.0625 feet
 Answer: The pear before it fell was 18.0625 feet up in the tree.

Answer:

18.0625 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The pear had a speed of 34 feet per second.

To Find: Approximately how far up in the tree was the pear before it fell?

Solution:

We are given that assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 32 feet per second squared

Formula = s=\sqrt{2gh}

Where s is the speed , g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height

So, 34=\sqrt{2(32)h}

34^2=64h

1156=64h

\frac{1156}{64}=h

18.0625=h

Hence the pear was at height of 18.0625 feet before it fell.

Nine students were asked how many miles they live from school. Their answers are listed below.
Zielflug [23.3K]
Answer:  The mode is: 3 .  The range is:  6 .
___________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________
  It would be best to list this values in the data set given, from least to greatest:
________________________________________________
  { 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 9 } .
________________________________________________
  The mode is the number that occurs most frequently in the data set, which is: "3".
_________________________________________________________
{The number, "3", occurs FOUR (4) times.  The number, "4", occurs ONE (1) time.  The number, "5", occurs TWO (2) times.  The number, "6", occurs ONE (1) time.  The number, "9", occurs ONE (1) time.}.
___________________________________________________
The range is calculated from subtracting the LOWEST value in the data set FROM the HIGHEST value in the data set.
____________________________________________________
 The lowest values in the data set is: "3" .
 
 The highest value in the data set is: "9" .
________________________________________________
 To calculate the range:  9 <span>− 3  = 6 .  The range is:  "6".
</span>________________________________________________
  Answer:  The mode is:  3 .  The range is:  6 .

Find the ninth term of the sequence sqrt 5, sqrt 10, ^2sqrt 5
hjlf
The rule of geometric sequence is   ⇒⇒⇒ a * r^(n-1)
Where a is the first term and  r is the common ratio
for the given sequence  √5 , √10 , 2√5 , .......
a = √5
r = √10 / √5 = √2
The ninth term = √5 * (√2)^(9-1) = √5 * (√2)⁸ = 16 √5

the correct answer is the third option 16√5
