Answer:
Not between significant digits.
Explanation:
A zero not significant when it's not between significant digits.
The horizontal speed of the object 1.0 seconds later is 1) 5.0 m/s.
Explanation:
The motion of an object thrown horizontally off a cliff is a projectile motion, which follows a parabolic path that consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction
- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction
This means that the horizontal speed of an object in projectile motion does not change, and remains constant during the whole motion.
Since in this case the object has been launched with a horizontal speed of
v = 5.0 m/s
this means that this speed will remain constant during the motion, so its horizontal speed 1.0 s later is also 5.0 m/s.

The speed of an object can be determined from the distance vs time graph.
You know that speed = distance/time
in the graph, distance/time = slope of the curve.
So SPEED IS GIVEN BY THE SLOPE of the curve in the graph.
● If the distance vs time curve is a straight line, parallel to time axis(x-axis), slope is 0. That means speed is 0. So the object is at rest.
● If the distance vs time curve is a straight line, with some non-zero slope; That means speed is nonzero and constant. So the object is in uniform motion.
● If the distance vs time curve is a curved, the slope is changing. That means speed is changing. So the object is in an accelerated motion.
