The correct answer is C. Its speed

Speed is related to the kinetic energy, not the potential one because kinetic requires the body to be in motion, that is, move at a certain speed. Potential energy has no motion.

Explanation :

The mechanical energy is the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy i.e.

ME = PE + KE

Kinetic energy is due to the motion of an object.

Potential energy is possessed by an object due to its height under the action of gravity.

Mathematically, it is written as :

PE =mgh

Where

m is the mass of the object

g is acceleration due to gravity

h is the height relative to reference level.

So, an object's gravitational potential energy is NOT related to its speed.

Hence, the correct option is (c) 'Its speed'.

There is a species of bamboo that can grow 36 inches per day. If a plant grew at this rate and was measured at 40 inches initial
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

It will take the plant 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days to grow to a height of 200 inches tall.

Explanation:

From the question, the rate at which the species of the bamboo tree grows is 36 inches per day.

To determine how long it would take a plant 40 inches tall initially to grow at this rate (that is, 36 inches per day) to a height of 200 inches.

This means we will calculate the number of days it will take the plant to grow additional 160 inches ( 200 inches - 40 inches) at this rate.

Now,

If the plant grows 36 inches in 1 day

then it will grow 160 inches in x days

x = (160 inches × 1 day) / 36 inches

x = 160 / 36

x = 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days

Hence, it will take the plant 4\frac{4}{9} days or 4.44 days to grow to a height of 200 inches tall.
