Answer:

V = 2.8 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of falcon, m_1=4\ kg

Mass of dove, m_2=1\ kg

Initial velocity of falcon, u_1=3\ m/s

Initial velocity of dove, u_2=2\ m/s

When the falcon catches the dove, the momentum remains conserved. Using the formula for the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V

V is the velocity after impact

V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}

V=\dfrac{4\times 3+1\times 2}{(4+1)}

V = 2.8 m/s

So, their velocity after the impact is 2.8 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

The density of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm3. A metal sample has a mass of 52.0 grams and a volume of 17.1 cubic centimeters. Could the
Fudgin [204]
 Answer:  
__________________________________________________
            No;  the sample could not be aluminum;
since the density of aluminum, " 2.7 g/cm³ " , is NOT close enough to the density of the sample, " 3.04 g/cm³ " .
________________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________________
Density is expressed as "mass per unit volume" ;

  in which:
     "mass, "m", is expressed in units of "g" (grams);  and:
     "Volume, "V", is expressed in units of "cm³ " (such as in this problem); or                                                   in units of "mL" ;
__________________________________________________
            {Note the exact conversion:  " 1 cm³ = 1 mL " .}. 
__________________________________________________
  The formula for density:  D = m/V ;

Given:  The density of aluminum is:  2.7 g/cm³.

Given:  A sample has a mass of 52.0 g ; and Volume of 17.1 cm³ ; could it be aluminum?
_________________________________________________________
Let us divide the mass of the sample by the volume of the sample;
by using the formula:
___________________________________________
            D = m / V ;  

     and see if the value is at, or very close to "2.7 g/cm³ ".  

If it is, then it could be aluminum.
____________________________________________________
The density for the sample:

  D = (52.0 / 17.1)   g/cm³ = 3.0409356725146199 g/cm³ ;
                                              →round to "3 significant figures" ;
                                          = 3.04 g/cm³ .
_______________________________________________
No; the sample could not be aluminum; since the density of aluminum, 
   "2.7 g/cm³ "   is NOT close enough to the density of the sample,
                        "3.04 g/cm³ " .

What did hegel and kant have in common? they both were determined to disprove marxist theory. they both thought that only histor
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The two philosophers furthermore seem to share the same conception of the conditions of human freedom. For Hegel as well as Kant, a theory of morality and political right devoted to advancing the cause of freedom must require more than just the absence of obstacles preventing the satisfaction of our animal passions.

Who’s has bigger cross sectional area capillaries or aorta?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Even though the cross-sectional area of each capillary is extremely small compared to that of the large aorta, the total cross-sectional area of all the capillaries added together is about 1,300 times greater than the cross-sectional area of the aorta because there are so many capillaries

A 20-liter container contains 2.0 moles of oxygen at a pressure of 92 kpa. the average kinetic energy of translation of oxygen m
Vikentia [17]

From ideal gas law, PV=nRT

where P is the pressure, V is the volume of the container, n is number of moles, R is the gas constant and T is the temperature.

Hence, T=\frac{PV}{nR}=\frac{92*10^{3}*2.0*10^{-3}}{2*3.314}

T= 110.65 k

Kinetic Energy = \frac{3}{2}KT=\frac{3}{2}  (1.38*10^{-23})(110.65)

K.E=  2.2*10^{-21}J

<h3>What is a kinetic energy? </h3>

The energy an object has as a result of motion is known as kinetic energy.

A force must be applied to an object in order to accelerate it. We must put in effort in order to apply a force. After the work is finished, energy is transferred to the item, which then moves at a new, constant speed. Kinetic energy is the type of energy that is transferred and is dependent on the mass and speed attained.

Kinetic energy can be converted into other types of energy and transported between objects. A flying squirrel may run into a chipmunk that is standing still, for instance. Some of the squirrel's initial kinetic energy may have been transferred to the chipmunk or changed into another kind of energy after the collision.

A spring whose spring constant is 270 lbf/in has an initial force of 100 lbf acting on it. Determine the work, in Btu, required
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

0.02585 BTU

Explanation:

Given: Spring constant, k = 270 lbf/in

Initial force, f =100 lbf

Compression, x = 1 in

Work done can be calculated as follows:

W = \int {(f+kx)} \, dx \\W = fx + \frac{1}{2}kx^2\\W= (100 lbf)(1 in)+ \frac{1}{2}(270 lbf/in)(1 in)^2\\W= 100+135 = 235 lbf in\\W=235 \times 0.00011 BTU = 0.02585 BTU
