A peregrine falcon is the fastest animal in the world. When it dives, it can accelerate to

The speed of the falcon is 144 km/h

Explanation:

The speed of a body is a scalar quantity telling how fast the object is moving, without giving any information about its direction.

It can be calculated as:

speed = \frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance covered

t is the time taken

In this problem, the falcon has a speed of

speed = 40 m/s

We want to convert it into km/h. Let's keep in mind that:

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 s

Therefore, we convert as follows:

speed = 40 \frac{m}{s} \cdot \frac{3600 s/h}{1000 m/k}=144 km/h

Marizza181 [45]
The correct answer is
<span>B. if Earth rotated on an axis that was not tilted with respect to Earth's orbit 

In fact, the fact that Earth's axis is tilted is the reason why the durations of day and night are different in every part of the Earth. If the axis was not tilted, we would have exactly 12 hours of day and night in every point of the Earth, for the whole year.</span>

The acceleration of a train moving from rest and its speed reaches 36m/sec in 9 sec​
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

4 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration is defined as: Δv/Δt (the difference of the velocity over a time period in which happens that difference).

Remember that a difference is calculated by subtracting the initial value of a physical quantity from its final value.

In our case:

Δv = Vfinal - Vinitial = 36m/s - 0 m/s = 36m/s

Δt = 9s

a = Δv/Δt = 36m/s / 9s = 4m/s^2

How is water vapor formed
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Y'now water vapor isn't half bad. It's like a vape but it can't affect your lungs. Anyway, Water vapor is water in gaseous instead of liquid form. It can be formed either through a process of evaporation or sublimation.

A stuntwoman is going to attempt a jump across a canyon that is 77 m wide. The ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

  She will make the jump.

Explanation:

We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

First we will consider horizontal motion of stunt women

   Displacement = 77 m, Initial velocity = 28 cos 15 = 27.05 m/s, acceleration = 0

Substituting

   77= 27.05t+\frac{1}{2} *0*t^2\\ \\ t=77/27.05=2.85 seconds

So she will cover 77 m in 2.85 seconds

 Now considering vertical motion, up direction as positive

    Initial velocity = 28 sin 15 = 7.25 m/s, acceleration =acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s^2, time = 2.85

    Substituting

           s=7.25*2.85-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*2.85^2=20.69-39.80 =-10.11 m

  So at time 2.85 stunt women is 10.11 m below from starting position, far side is 25 m lower. So she will be at higher position.

  So she will make the jump.
