Question 2 A cat chases a mouse across a 4 m high table. The mouse steps out of the way, and the cat slides off the table and strikes the floor 22 m Erom the edge of the table
What was the cat's speed when it slid off the table?
Answer the question with 3 significant figures. "1.58 N' is three significant figues. "1245 km" is not. If you do not your answer will be incorrect. Be sure to include
the correct units. If not your answer will be incorrect.

24.4 m

Explanation:

first we have to calculate how long the cat will be in the air, in vertical direction this is free fall from 4m (poor cat, hope he survived) with acceleration of g=9.81 m/s^2

time = sqrt ( 2 * height / g)

time = sqrt (2 * 4 / 9.81)

time = 0,903 s

then we know his horizontal flight was 22 m long, so ve can calculate verical speed

speed = length / time

speed = 22 m / 0,903 s

speed = 24.363 m

as you are asked to give 3 significant numbers answer is 24,4 m

your answer is, orbit around the nucleus

it was given as a lesson and guide for prayer.
