A 1.5kg apple falls from a tree. If the apple falls for 2.75s before striking the ground, determine how far in meters the apple dropped before hitting the ground

s = 37.81 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of an apple, m = 1.5 kg

The apple falls for 2.75s before striking the ground.

We need to find how far the apple dropped before hitting the ground. It means we need to find the distance covered. Using the second equation of motion to find it :

u is initial velocity, u = 0 (at rest)

So, Apple dropped 37.81 m before hitting the ground.

it is given that trillions of microbes make up to 1% to 3% of the body mass.

let's take average of this percentage: 2%

consider the average mass of the human body as 70 kg.

then, trillions of microbes would have mass  

therefore, 100 trillion micro-organisms would weigh:

this is an approximate value and could change depending on the mass of the human body and percentage of the microbes present in it.

average mass per microorganism =
