How many pounds of meat does a cougar eat per day

1 answer:

4 0

A large male cougar living in the Cascade Mountains kills a deer or elk every 9 to 12 days, eating up to 20 pounds at a time and burying the rest for later.Except for females with young, cougars are lone hunters that wander between places frequented by their prey, covering as much as 15 miles in a single night.Cougars rely on short bursts of speed to ambush their prey. A cougar may stalk an animal for an hour or more

hope this helps in any way ! :)

A ball is thrown with an initial speed vi at an angle i with the horizontal. The horizontal range of the ball is R, and the ball

adell [148]

Answer:

Part a)

$T = 2\sqrt{\frac{R}{3g}}$

Part b)

$v_x = \frac{\sqrt{3Rg}}{2}$

Part c)

$v_y = \sqrt{Rg/3}$

Part d)

$v = \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{13Rg}$

Part e)

$\theta_i = 33.7 degree$

Part f)

$H = \frac{13R}{8}$

Part g)

$X = \frac{13R}{4}$

Explanation:

Initial speed of the launch is given as

initial speed = $v_i$

angle = $\theta_i$ degree

Now the two components of the velocity

$v_x = v_i cos\theta_i$

similarly we have

$v_y = v_i sin\theta_i$

Part a)

Now we know that horizontal range is given as

$R = \frac{v_i^2 (2sin\theta_icos\theta_i)}{g}$

maximum height is given as

$H = \frac{R}{6} = \frac{v_i^2 sin^2\theta_i}{2g}$

so we have

$v_i sin\theta = \sqrt{Rg/3}$

time of flight is given as

$T = \frac{2v_isin\theta_i}{g}$

$T = \frac{2\sqrt{Rg/3}}{g}$

$T = 2\sqrt{\frac{R}{3g}}$

Part b)

Now the speed of the ball in x direction is always constant

so at the peak of its path the speed of the ball is given as

$R = v_x T$

$R = v_x 2\sqrt{\frac{R}{3g}}$

$v_x = \frac{\sqrt{3Rg}}{2}$

Part c)

Initial vertical velocity is given as

$v_y = v_i sin\theta_i$

$v_i sin\theta = \sqrt{Rg/3}$

Part d)

Initial speed is given as

$v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

so we will have

$v = \sqrt{Rg/3 + 3Rg/4}$

$v = \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{13Rg}$

Part e)

Angle of projection is given as

$tan\theta_i = \frac{v_y}{v_x}$

$tan\theta_i = \frac{\sqrt{Rg/3}}{\sqrt{3Rg}/2}$

$\theta_i = 33.7 degree$

Part f)

If we throw at same speed so that it reach maximum height

then the height will be given as

$H = \frac{v^2}{2g}$

$H = \frac{13R}{8}$

Part g)

For maximum range the angle should be 45 degree

so maximum range is

$X = \frac{v^2}{g}$

$X = \frac{13R}{4}$

(a) If a proton with a kinetic energy of 6.2 MeV is traveling in a particle accelerator in a circular orbit with a radius of 0.5

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is $3.02\times10^{-11}$ .

Explanation:

Suppose Electromagnetic radiation is emitted by accelerating charges. The rate at which energy is emitted from an accelerating charge that has charge q and acceleration a is given by

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}$

Given that,

Kinetic energy = 6.2 MeV

Radius = 0.500 m

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

$a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}mr}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{6.2\times10^{6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times0.51}$

$a=2.32\times10^{15}\ m/s^2$

We need to calculate the rate at which it emits energy because of its acceleration is

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{(1.6\times10^{-19})^2\times(2.3\times10^{15})^2}{6\pi\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(3\times10^{8})^3}$

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=3.00\times10^{-23}\ J/s$

The energy in ev/s

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{3.00\times10^{-23}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}\ J/s$

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=1.875\times10^{-4}\ ev/s$

We need to calculate the fraction of its energy that it radiates every second

$\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=\dfrac{1.875\times10^{-4}}{6.2\times10^{6}}$

$\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=3.02\times10^{-11}$

Hence, The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is $3.02\times10^{-11}$ .

How could I tell if an egg is hard boiled or raw explain using Newton's law of motion

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's 2 nd law of motion tells that when equal torque is applied on object having higher moment of inertia , it will rotate slower .

Moment of inertia of boiled egg is higher because the whole egg rotates as s solid unit . Hence it will rotate slower or it rolls slower on an inclined surface .

In this way by applying Newton's law , we can identify raw or boiled egg .
