Velocity and componets question?

Question

An apple falls straight down from an apple tree growing on a 20 degree slope. The apple falls a distance of 2.5m before hitting the ground. (A) What is the apples speed as it hits the ground? (B) What are the components parallel and perpendicular to the ground of the velocity?

Answer 1

for A: suvat eqn

x=2.5
u=0
v=?
a=9.81
t=?

v^2=u^2+2as

plug in values

v=7ms^-1

dunno about b

Answer 2

(A) v = - gt = -sqrt(g^2t^2)
= - sqrt(2gs) = -sqrt(2*9.8*2.5)
= -7(m/s)
(B) parallel: -7*sin(20 degree) = -2.4(m/s)
perpendicular: -7*cos(20 degree) = -6.6(m/s)
