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.
4 1/5 would be in simplest form
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The properties of addition and multiplication allow you to rearrange and/or regroup the components of a sum or a product. That is the point of this exercise.
(2·8)·7 = 2·(8·7) . . . . parentheses have moved: associative property
2 + 7 + 8 = 8 + 2 + 7 . . . . order is rearranged: commutative property
5·3·12 = 12·5·3 . . . . . order is rearranged: commutative property
(3 +5) +12 = 3 +(5 +12) . . . . parentheses have moved: associative property

<em>Additional comment</em>
Whenever you're in doubt about the equivalence of numerical expressions, you can use your calculator to evaluate them. They will give the same result if they are equivalent. (You need a good scientific or graphing calculator that uses parentheses for this. Some seriously good calculators are available as low-cost phone apps.)
The Google search box also serves as input to the Google calculator. You can use an asterisk (*) for multiplication.
The answer is A because 2 multiplied by 9 is 18
