Given that,
Time = 0.5 s
Acceleration = 10 m/s²
(I). We need to calculate the speed of apple
Using equation of motion
Where, v = speed
u = initial speed
a = acceleration
t = time
Put the value into the formula
(III). We need to calculate the height of the branch of the tree from the ground
Using equation of motion
Put the value into the formula
(II). We need to calculate the average velocity during 0.5 sec
Using formula of average velocity
Where, = final position
= initial position
Put the value into the formula
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.
