A :-) for this question , we should apply
a = v - u by t
Given - u = 4.77 m/s
v = 23.5 m/s
t = 5.18 m/s
Solution -
a = v - u by t
a = 23.5 - 4.77
a = 28.27 m/s^2
.:. The acceleration is 28.27 m/s^2
The answer is <span>It protects the seed until it matures.
Through the process of elimination:
- </span><span>It protects the seed until it matures. YES. A female pine cone the unfertilized seeds until they become mature. Then, the cone opens and seeds fall out of the cone.
</span><span>- It makes food for the adult plant. NO. The food of plants in made of green leaves that contain chlorophyll in the process of photosynthesis.
- It allows for photosynthesis to occur. NO. The cones have nothing to do with photosynthesis but they are responsible for reproduction.
- It acts as an object to attract birds. NO. The birds look for colourful flowers while cones are woody.
