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.

The relationship between antioxidant food consumption per day in cups and the BMI of an individual is modeled by the following l
Katena32 [7]
This is in gradient intercept form (or slope intercept form)
y = mx + b
in this case y = -1.2x + 26
so m (the slope) = -1.2
and the y intercept = 26
I'm not sure what intercept they're asking for.
if you wanted to find the x intercept, just substitute.
y = 0 and find x.

Answer:

30.96 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Side length of the square is also the diameter of the semicircle so:

r = 0.5 * 12 m = 6 m

Since you want the area of the shaded area, you have to subtract the area of both semi circles from the area of the square:

Square Area - Semi Circle Area - Semi Circle Area = Shaded Region Area

(12 m * 12 m) - (0.5 * 3.14 * 6^2 m) - (0.5 * 3.14 * 6^2 m)

= 144 - 56.52 - 56.52

= 30.96 m^2

A triangle with an area of 23 cm² is dilated by a factor of 6.
Jlenok [28]
For this item, I will assume that we are required to give the area of the dilated triangle. By dilated we mean to say that the dimensions of the second triangle is 6 times that of the first. We square 6 and them multiply this to the area of the original triangle to get the area of the second. That is,
                     area of second triangle = (2/3 cm²)(6²) = 24 cm²
Thus, the area of the new triangle is equal to 24 cm².
