A squirrel on a limb near the top of a tree loses its grip on a nut, so that the nut slips away horizontally at a speed of 1.5m/s. If the nut lands at a horizontal distance of 7.2m, how high above the ground is the squirrel?

The height of the squirrel  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The horizontally speed is

    The horizontal  distance

Generally the the time taken is mathematically represented

=>  

=>  

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

Here u  is the initial velocity of nut in the vertical and the value is 0 m/s

=>  

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.
