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

A gun has a muzzle speed of 150 m/s. Find two angles of elevation that can be used to hit a target 800m away.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

u =  150 m/s

R = 800 m

The formula for the horizontal range is

R=\frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}

where, θ is angle of projection.

800=\frac{150^{2}Sin2\theta }{9.8}

Sin2θ = 0.348

2θ = 20.4°

θ = 10.2°

The range is same for the complementary angles.

So, the other angle is 90 - 10.2 = 79.8°

WILL MARK BRAINLIESTFor the simple harmonic motion equation d =4sin(8pit) what is the period?
shtirl [24]
The period of any wave is the time it takes for its angle
to go from zero to 2pi .

The 'sin' function is a wave.  The angle of this one is (8pi t).

When t=0, the angle is zero.
Wonderful.
Now, how long does it take for the angle to grow to 2pi ?

I*n other words, when is (8pi t) = 2pi ?

Divide each side by '2pi': . . . . . 4 t = 1

Divide each side by ' 4 ': . . . . . t = 1/4

And there you are.  Every time 't' grows by 1/4, (8pi t) grows by 2pi.
So if you graph this simple harmonic motion described by 'd', you'll
see the graph wiggle up and down with a period of 1/4 .

A team of bicyclists are on bikes that require 512 J of work to ride. It takes 432 J of work for the bike to turn the gears. Wha
Alja [10]

Answer:

84.4 %

Explanation:

Mechanical efficiency = output work/input work × 100 %

output work = 432 J of work for the bike to turn the gears

input work = 512 J of work to ride.

Mechanical efficiency =  432 J/512 J × 100 %

= 0.844 × 100%

= 84.4 %

One observer stands on a train moving at a constant speed, and one observer stands at rest on the ground. The person on the trai
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Option D.

Value cannot be calculated without knowing the speed of the train

Explanation:

The speed of the beam can only be calculated accurately when the speed of the train is put into consideration. Based of the theory of relativity, the observer is on the ground, and the train is moving with the beam of light inside it. This causes a variation in the reference frames when making judgements of the speed of the beam. The speed of the beam will be more accurate if the observer is moving at the same sped of the train, or the train is stationary.

To get the correct answer, we have to subtract the speed of the train from the speed calculated.
