Because /dev/hda5 is not mounted.  /dev/hda5 is a physical volume used
to create the total storage available to the volume group.  Nor does the
volume group show up in the output of df, because the volume group is
not mounted.  /dev/mapper/Ubuntu-root does show up, because it is
mounted.

df shows utilisation/free-space on mounted filesystems.
