An apple dropped from the branch of a tree hits the ground in 0.5 s. If the acceleration of the apple during its motion is 10 ms

-2 in the downward direction. Calculate ----- Its speed just before it hits the ground. What is its average velocity during 0.5 s? Calculate the height of the branch of the tree from the ground?

Given that,

Time = 0.5 s

Acceleration = 10 m/s²

(I). We need to calculate the speed of apple

Using equation of motion

v=u+at

Where, v = speed

u = initial speed

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v=0+10\times0.5

v=5\ m/s

(III). We need to calculate the height of the branch of the tree from the ground

Using equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Put the value into the formula

s=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times10\times(0.5)^2

s=1.25\ m

(II). We need to calculate the average velocity during 0.5 sec

Using formula of average velocity

v_{avg}=\dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{x_{f}-x_{i}}{t_{f}-t_{0}}

Where, x_{f}= final position

x_{i} = initial position

Put the value into the formula

v_{avg}=\dfrac{1.25+0}{0.5}

v_{avg}=2.5\ m/s

Hence, (I). The speed of apple is 5 m/s.

(II). The average velocity during 0.5 sec is 2.5 m/s

(III). The height of the branch of the tree from the ground is 1.25 m.

If 5 mm of rain falls in a 100 m2 field, what volume of rain, in m3, fell in the field?
Nina [5.8K]

The volume of rain that fells in the field is simply given by the area of the field, which is

A=100 mm^2

multiplied by the height of rain that fell, which is

h=5.0 mm

Therefore, the volume is

V=hA=(5 mm)(100 mm^2)=500 mm^3

The maximum distance at which a highway sign can be read is determined for a sample of young people and a sample of older people
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The population mean are the same

Explanation:

Answer:

The population means are the same.

Explanation:

The hypotheses for a difference in two population means are similar to those for a difference difference two population proportions.

At null point, Ha=0

Let the mean population of the young one be u1

Let the mean population of the old one be u2.

Then, the difference between their mean population distance is given as

Ha=u2-u1

Since, Ha is null point, Ha=0

0=u2-u1

u2=u1

This shows that the mean population distance of the old is equal to the mean population distance of the young.

Therefore their mean population distance is the same

Since it is null alternative then, the population mean are the same.

We must sample the population using

1. Samples must be random to remove or minimize bias.

2. Sample must be representative of the populations in question.

A metabolic waste of algae that can be recycled for use in cellular respiration is
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:oxygen

Explanation:algae are plants that lives in aquatic habitat,with a few of them occurring in land. Algae have chlorophyll and as a result are autotrophic in nutrition. Algae uses carbon dioxide as a raw material for photosynthesis which is the process where they produce food. They also give off oxygen which results from the splitting of water by light.

This oxygen given off is used by organisms for cellular respiration.the mitochondria is the organelle responsible it's utilization in respiration and carbon dioxide is given off.oxygen serves as an electron acceptor in the energy producing process in the mitochondria. It is an important gas for aerobic respiration.
