A hawk is flying horizontally at 18.0 m/s in a straight line, 230 m above the ground. A mouse it has been carrying struggles fre
Lisa [10]

Answer:

a) vd = 47.88 m/s

b) θ = 80.9°

c) t = 6.8 s

Explanation:

In the situation of the problem, you can assume that the trajectory of the hawk and the trajectory of the mouse form a rectangle triangle.

One side of the triangle is the horizontal trajectory of the hawk after 2.00s of flight, the other side of the triangle is the distance traveled by the mouse when it is falling down. And the hypotenuse is the trajectory of the hawk when it is trying to recover the mouse.

(a) In order to calculate the diving speed of the hawk, you first calculate the hypotenuse of the triangle.

One side of the triangle is c1 = (18.0m/s)(2.0s) = 36m

The other side of the triangle is c2 = 230m - 3m = 227 m

Then, the hypotenuse is:

h=\sqrt{(36m)^2+(227m)^2}=229.83m    (1)

Next, it is necessary to calculate the falling down time of the mouse, this can be done by using the following formula:

y=y_o+v_ot+\frac{1}{2}gt^2    (2)

yo: initial height = 230m

vo: initial vertical speed of the mouse = 0m/s

g: gravitational acceleration = -9.8m/s^2

y: final height of the mouse = 3 m

You replace the values of the parameters in (2) and solve for t:

3=230-4.9t^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\frac{227}{4.9}}=6.8s

The hawk traveled during 2.00 second in the horizontal trajectory, hence, the hawk needed 6.8s - 2.0s = 4.8 s to travel the distance equivalent to the hypotenuse to catch the mouse.

You use the value of h and 4.8s to find the diving speed of the hawk:

v_d=\frac{229.83m}{4.8s}=47.88\frac{m}{s}

The diving speed of the Hawk is 47.88m/s

(b) The angle is given by:

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{c_1}{h})=cos^{-1}(\frac{36m}{229.83m})=80.9 \°

Then angle between the horizontal and the trajectory of the Hawk when it is descending is 80.9°

(c) The mouse is falling down during 6.8 s

When you let the air go out of a balloon the balloon moves or shoots like a rocket. Would this happen if there was no surroundin
Pie

Answer:

The balloon would still move like a rocket

Explanation:

The principle of work of this system is the Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action), object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the balloon as object A and the air inside the balloon as object B. As the air goes out from the balloon, the balloon exerts a force (backward) on the air, and as a result of Newton's 3rd law, the air exerts an equal and opposite force (forward) on the balloon, making it moving forward.

This mechanism is not affected by the presence or absence of surrounding air: in fact, this mechanism also works in free space, where there is no air (and in fact, rockets also moves in space using this system, despite the absence of air).

Otrada [13]
Hey there! My name is Christy and I'm gladly to help you out!


The three main forces that stop moving objects are friction, gravity and wind resistance. Equal forces acting inopposite directions are called balanced forces. Balanced forcesacting on an object will not change the object's motion. When you add equal forces in opposite direction, the netforce is zero.

Hope this helped!

Any change in the speed or direction of motion is called "acceleration". You'll hear "deceleration" used for slowing down but that's not technically correct.
