An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 3.80 m/s when the fish in her talons wiggles loose and falls into the lake 3.90 m

below. Calculate the velocity (in m/s) of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water. (Assume that the eagle is flying in the x-direction and that the y-direction is up.)

Answer:

the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water is 9.537m/s and 66.52⁰ below horizontal

Explanation:

initial veetical speed V₀y=0

Horizontal speed Vx = Vx₀= 3.80m/s

Vertical drop height= 3.90m

Let Vy = vertical speed when it got to the water downward.

g= 9.81m/s² = acceleration due to gravity

From kinematics equation of motion for vertical drop

Vy²= V₀y² +2 gh

Vy²= 0 + ( 2× 9.8 × 3.90)

Vy= √76.518

Vy=8.747457

Then we can calculate the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water using Resultant speed formula below

V= √Vy² + Vx²

V=√3.80² + 8.747457²

V=9.537m/s

The angle can also be calculated as

θ=tan⁻¹(Vy/Vx)

tan⁻¹( 8.747457/3.80)

=66.52⁰

the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water is 9.537m/s and 66.52⁰ below horizontal

Consider one such cell where the magnitude of the potential difference is 65 mV, and the inner surface of the membrane is at a h
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: W = 1.04.10^{-20} J

Explanation: Since the potassium ion is at the outside membrane of a cell and the potential here is lower than the potential inside the cell, the transport will need work to happen.

The work to transport an ion from a lower potential side to a higher potential side is calculated by

W=q.\Delta V

q is charge;

ΔV is the potential difference;

Potassium ion has +1 charge, which means:

p = 1.6.10^{-19} C

To determine work in joules, potential has to be in Volts, so:

\Delta V=65.10^{-3}V

Then, work is

W=1.6.10^{-19}.65.10^{-3}

W=1.04.10^{-20}

To move a potassium ion from the exterior to the interior of the cell, it is required W=1.04.10^{-20}J of energy.

List the three main things necessary to build an electromagnet.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Electromagnets are special types of magnets that are made by passing current through coils of wire. To make an electromagnet, the minimum requirements are:

1. A nail (usually made of iron, steel or zinc)

2. Dry cell batteries

3. Wire (Usually copper wire)

Other things could be:

1. Electric tape to hold both ends of the wire properly at the battery terminals.

2. Scissors to cut the wire into desired length.

3. Iron fillings for testing purposes.

2. For each pair of variables, identify which is the independent and which is the dependent variable. a. How much gas is left in
Korvikt [17]

For each pair Independent variable and the dependent variable is -

a. How much gas is left in the gas tank vs. how far the car has traveled.

  • Independent variable =  how far the car has traveled
  • dependent variable = How much gas is left in the gas tank

b. How much money you've spent vs. how much money is in your wallet.

  • Independent variable =  How much money you've spent
  • dependent variable = how much money is in your wallet.

c. How far a toy car traveled vs. how much time went by​

  • Independent variable =  how much time went by​
  • dependent variable = How far a toy car traveled

An independent variable in any experiment or research is a variable that is manipulated or changed in the experiment, this change leads to a direct effect on the dependent variable.

A dependent variable is a variable that is directly affected by the independent variable and it is the variable that is measured or tested in an experiment.

Thus,

a. How much gas is left in the gas tank vs. how far the car has traveled.

  • Independent variable =  how far the car has traveled
  • dependent variable = How much gas is left in the gas tank

b. How much money you've spent vs. how much money is in your wallet.

  • Independent variable =  How much money you've spent
  • dependent variable = how much money is in your wallet.

c. How far a toy car traveled vs. how much time went by​

  • Independent variable =  how much time went by​
  • dependent variable = How far a toy car traveled
