A young owl forgets how to fly for a moment and is free falling towards the ground. Before crashing, he remembers how to fly and

goes back to his nest to rest!
What can we say about the owl as it falls?



Group of answer choices

The owl has a constant velocity while falling.

The owl will hang motionless in the air until he remembers to flap his wings.

The owl has an acceleration of -9.8m/s2 while falling.


The owl slows down as he falls.

did you figure it out

Answer:

The correct answer is C. The owl has an acceleration of -9.8m/s².

Explanation:

This is because the gravitational acceleration on earth is equal to -9.8m/s².

A is incorrect because, the longer you fall the faster you fall. (Gaining velocity).

B is also incorrect because.. you're <em>falling. </em>If the owl <em>somehow</em> forgot how to fly, he's not going to stay in the same place while trying to remember; he's going to drop.

D is definitely incorrect because the owl is not slowing down, you're gaining velocity and moving faster

Hope this helps,

bija089 [108]

Answer:

<h2>Angular Displacement 6.28 radians</h2>

Explanation:

for circular motion we are expected to solve for Angular Displacement it is measured in radian

Measurement of Angular Displacement.

we can measure it using the following relation

∅= s/r

where

s = the distance travelled by the body, and

r = radius of the circle along which it is moving.

given that

circumference c,  s= 400 m

r= ?

we have to solve for the radius

we know that circumference

c= 2\pi r

400= 2*3.142*r

400= 6.282*r

divide both sides by 6.284 we have

400/6.284

r= 63.63 m

Angular  displcament

∅= 400/63.63

∅= 6.28 radians

A hammer exerts 49.8 N of force on the head (r=0.00510 m) of a nail. How much pressure does it exert on the nail?
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

609547.12 Pa ≈ 6.10×10^5 Pa

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This include the following:

Force (F) = 49.8 N

Radius (r) = 0.00510 m

Pressure (P) =..?

Step 2:

Determination of the area of the head of the nail.

The head of a nail is circular in nature. Therefore, the area is given by:

Area (A) = πr²

With the above formula we can obtain the area as follow:

Radius (r) = 0.00510 m

Area (A) =?

A = πr²

A = π x (0.00510)²

A = 8.17×10^-5 m²

Therefore the area of the head of the nail is 8.17×10^-5 m²

Step 3:

Determination of the pressure exerted by the hammer.

This is illustrated below:

Force (F) = 49.8 N

Area (A) = 8.17×10^-5 m²

Pressure (P) =..?

Pressure (P) = Force (F) /Area (A)

P = F/A

P = 49.8/8.17×10^-5

P = 609547.12 N/m²

Now, we shall convert 609547.12 N/m² to Pa.

1 N/m² = 1 Pa

Therefore, 609547.12 N/m² = 609547.12 Pa.

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the hammer on the nail is 609547.12 Pa or 6.10×10^5 Pa

Students perform an experiment in which they drop two eggs with equal mass from a balcony. In the first trial, the egg hits the
shepuryov [24]

<u> Answer </u>

The impulse on the second trial is smaller is smaller than in the first trial.

<u>Explanation </u>

Impose of a body is that change in momentum during a time interval. If the change of momentum takes longer then, the impulse of a force is less. I a moving object hits a hard surface the rate of change of momentum is very high. e.i in the first trial, the egg breaks because it hits the hard surface(ground).

In the second trial, the foam cushion absorbs the shock and prolongs the time of impact with the egg hence decreasing the impulse.

it takes 560s for a runner to complete one circular lap, moving at a speed of 6.00 m/s. what is the radius of a track?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

534.8 meters

Explanation:

Use T=(2*pi*r)/v

560=(2*pi*r)/6

3360=2*pi*r

1680=pi*r

534.8 meters=radius
