Heya!!
For calculate velocity, lets applicate formula
<u>Δ Being Δ</u>
d = Distance = 3790 m
t = Time = 249 s
v = Velocity = ?
⇒ Let's replace according the formula and clear "v":
⇒ Resolving
Result:
The velocity is <u>15,22 meters per second.</u>
Good Luck!!
The velocity of the eagle is 7.0 m/s
Explanation:
The motion of the fish is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction, where the horizontal velocity of the fish is equal to the horizontal velocity of the eagle
- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction
We start by analyzing the vertical motion, using the following suvat equation:
where:
s = 6.1 m is the vertical displacement of the fish
u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity of the fish
is the acceleration of gravity
t is the time
Solving for t, we find the time of flight of the fish:
Now we know that during this time, the fish travels a horizontal distance of
x = 7.9 m
Therefore, the horizontal velocity of the fish is
And therefore, this is the initial velocity of the eagle.
