Question

Studies show that a typical giant hummingbird can flap its wings once in 0.08 of a second.

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 90

b. 360

Step-by-step explanation:

The time taken by humming bird to flap its wings= 0.08 sec

by flying 7.2 seconds a typical giant hummingbird flap its wings $\frac{7.2}{0.08}$ times

= 90 times

Since, A ruby-throated hummingbird can flap its wings 4 times faster than a giant hummingbird, it will flap its wings in every 0.02 sec

so in 7.2 seconds it will flap $\frac{7.2}{0.02}$ times = 360 times
