The solution would be like
this for this specific problem:
<span>v = ? </span><span>
<span>u = 0.0 m/s </span>
<span>a = 9.8 m/s^2 </span>
<span>s = 56.1 m </span></span>
<span>v^2 = (0.0 m/s)^2 + [2 *
(9.8 m/s^2) * (56 m) ] </span><span>
<span>v^2 = 2 * (9.8 m/s^2) * (56 m) </span>
<span>v^2 = 1,097.6 m^2/s^2 </span>
<span>v = SQRT {1,097.6 m^2/s^2 } </span></span>
v = 33.1 m/s
<span>v = u + at </span>
<span>(v - u) / a = t </span>
[ (33.1 m/s) - (0.0 m/s)
] / (9.8 m/s^2) = 3.38 seconds
If the pigeon is 56.0 m below the initial position of the
falcon, it will take 3.38 seconds for the falcon to reach the pigeon. I am
hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help
you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
It takes him
t = 16 miles / 156 mph = 0.1 hours
The answer is A. Trust me!
