The bird is held in level flight due to the force exerted on it by the air as the bird beats its wings. What is the maximum valu

e of this force due to the air? Note that the bird's weight, the force of gravity acting on it, is calculated using w=mg, a result that will be justified in Chapter 5.

Answer:

 maximumforce is F = mg

Explanation:

For this case we must use Newton's second law,

     Σ F = m a

bold indicate vectors, so we will write it in its components x and y

 X axis

       Fₓ = maₓ

 Axis y

      Fy - W = m aa_{y}

Now let's examine our case, with indicate that the bird is level, the force of the wings can have a measured angle with respect to the x axis, where the vertical component is responsible for the lift, let's use trigonometry to find the components

      Cos θ = Fₓ / F

      Fₓ = F cos θ

      sin θ = Fy / F

      Fy = F sin θ

Let's replace and calculate

      F sin θ -w = m a

 

As the bird indicates that leveling at the same height, so the vertical acceleration is zero (ay = 0)

       F sin θ = w = mg

The maximum value of this equation occurs when the sin=1, in this case

      F = mg
