In a vertical dive, a peregrine falcon can accelerate at 0.6 times the free-fall acceleration g (that is, at 0.6 g ) in reaching

a speed of about 108 m / s. If a falcon pulls out of a dive into a circular arc at this speed and can sustain a radial acceleration of 0.6 g , what is the radius R of the turn?

The radius R of the turn is 1.984 km.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As the falcon is experiencing a centripetal motion, the acceleration exhibited by the falcon will be centripetal acceleration. The formula for centripetal acceleration is

                 a=\frac{v^{2} }{R}

Here a is the acceleration for centripetal motion, v is the velocity and R is the radius of the circular path.

As the centripetal acceleration is given as 0.6 g, the velocity is given as 108 m/s, then the radius of the path can be determined as

       0.6 \times 9.8=\frac{(108)^{2}}{R}

      R=\frac{(108)^{2}}{0.6 \times 9.8}=\frac{11664}{5.88}=1983.67\ \mathrm{m}

So, the radius of the turn is 1.984 km.

If Joe rides his bike for 15 minutes at 20 km/hour south, how far has he ridden? (Give the answer in km) Watch the units!
Virty [35]

Answer:

Distance covered by Joe, d = 5 km

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of Joe, v = 20 km/hour

Time taken by Joe, t = 15 minutes = 0.25 h

We need to find the distance he is covering. It can be calculated using definition of speed as :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

d=v\times t

d=20\times 0.25

d = 5 km

So, Joe covers a distance of 5 km. Hence, this is the required solution.
