An eagle flying at 15 m/s has 600 J of kinetic energy. About how much is the eagles mass?
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

5.33kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Velocity of eagle  = 15m/s

Kinetic energy of the eagle = 600J

Unknown:

Mass of the eagle  = ?

Solution:

The kinetic energy of any body is the energy due to the motion of a body. There are different forms of kinetic energy some of which are thermal, mechanical, electrical  energy.

The formula of kinetic energy is given as;

              Kinetic energy  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

where m is the mass, V is the velocity

   substitute the parameters in the equation;

                       600  = \frac{1}{2} x m x 15²

                     225m  = 1200

                            m  = \frac{1200}{225}    = 5.33kg

mixer [17]

Answer:

Both the astronauts and photographer have the same displacement

Explanation:

Displacement is the minimum distance between two point. The initial point of both the astronauts and the photographer was Florida and the final point was California. So, the minimum distance for both of the astronauts and the photographer would be the distance between Florida and California would be the same.

Hence, both the astronauts and photographer will have the same displacement.

Zielflug [23.3K]
There are a few reasons that one teams could win. It depends if the on of the  teams has a better grip on the rope or not or maybe one off the teams has more friction between the ground and there shoes. So really it no matter what one of the teams will win.
