Answer:
Explanation:
Given that on the tree the gravitational energy stored is 8J
Then, mgh = 8J.
The apple begins to fall and hit the ground, what is the maximum kinetic energy?
Using conservation of energy, as the above is about to hit the ground, the apple is at is maximum speed, and the height then is 0m, so the potential energy at the ground is zero, so all the potential of the apple at the too of the tree is converted to kinetic energy as it is about to hits the ground. Along the way to the ground, both the Kinetic energy and potential energy is conserved, it is notice that at the top of the tree, the apple has only potential energy since velocity is zero at top, and at the bottom of the tree the apple has only kinetic energy since potential energy is zero(height=0)
So,
K.E(max) = 8J
Answer:
b) No acceleration in the vertical
c) 35N
d) 35N
e) 
Explanation:
a) The situation can be shown in the free body diagram shown in the figure below where F is the applied force, Fr is the friction force, W is the weight of the book and N is the normal force exerted vertically up from the desk to the book
b) The vertical movement is restrained by the normal force which opposes to the weight. In absence of any other force, they both are in equilibrium and the net force is zero
c) The net horizontal force acting on the book is the vectorial sum of the applied force and the friction force. Since they lie in the same axis and are opposed to each other:

d) The net force acting on the book is the vector sum of all forces in all axes. The normal and the weight cancel each other in the y-axis, so our resulting force is the x-axis net force, computed as above:
in the x-axis
e) Following Newton's second law, the acceleration is calculated as
