Here we will the speed of seagull which is v = 9 m/s
this is the speed of seagull when there is no effect of wind on it
now in part a)
if effect of wind is in opposite direction then it travels 6 km in 20 min
so the average speed is given by the ratio of total distance and total time
now since effect of wind is in opposite direction then we can say
Part b)
now if bird travels in the same direction of wind then we will have
now we can find the time to go back
Part c)
Total time of round trip when wind is present
now when there is no wind total time is given by
So due to wind time will be more
(a)
The total mechanical energy of the space probe must be constant, so we can write:
(1)
where
is the kinetic energy at the surface, when the probe is launched
is the gravitational potential energy at the surface
is the final kinetic energy of the probe
is the final gravitational potential energy
Here we have
at the surface, (radius of the planet),
(mass of the planet) and m=10 kg (mass of the probe), so the initial gravitational potential energy is
At the final point, the distance of the probe from the centre of Zero is
so the final potential energy is
So now we can use eq.(1) to find the final kinetic energy:
(b)
The probe reaches a maximum distance of
which means that at that point, the kinetic energy is zero: (the probe speed has become zero):
At that point, the gravitational potential energy is
So now we can use eq.(1) to find the initial kinetic energy:
