Later, an acom fals from somewhere higher up in the tree. If the acom takes o 226 seconds to pass the length of the meter stick, how high above the ground was the acorm before it fel (assurming that the acorm didn't run into any branches or leaves on the way down) Number

Explanation / Answer

given

s = 1 m

t = 0.226 sec

using equation

s = ut + 1/2 a t2

1 = u X 0.226 + 0.5 X 9.8 X 0.2262

1 - 0.25 = u X 0.226

u = 0.75 / 0.226

u = 3.318 m/s

and uisng v2 - u2 = 2 g h

h = v2 - u2 / 2 g

h = 3.3182 - 02 / 2 X 9.8

h = 0.561 m

then height of the acorn above the ground is

h = 0.561 + 1.27

h = 1.831 m
