The peregrine falcon is the world's fastest known bird and has been clocked diving downward toward its prey at constant vertical

velocity of 97.2 m/s. If the falcon dives straight down from a height of 100. m, how much time does this give a rabbit below to consider his next move as the falcon begins his descent?

100m / 97.2m/s = 1.0288 seconds

Answer:

Time, t = 1.02 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity of bird, v = 97.2 m/s

If the falcon dives straight down from a height of 100 m, d = 100 m

We need to find the time this give a rabbit below to consider his next move as the falcon begins his descent. Time can be calculated as :

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}$

$t=\dfrac{100\ m}{97.2\ m/s}$

t = 1.02 seconds

Hence, this is the required solution.

An observer stands on the side of the front of a stationary train. When the train starts moving with constant acceleration, the

Zarrin [17]

To solve this problem we will use the linear motion description kinematic equations. We will proceed to analyze the general case by which the analysis is taken for the second car and the tenth. So we have to:

$x = v_0 t \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Where,

x= Displacement

$v_0$ = Initial velocity

a = Acceleration

t = time

Since there is no initial velocity, the same equation can be transformed in terms of length and time as:

$L = \frac{1}{2} a t_1 ^2$

For the second cart

$2L \frac{1}{2} at_2^2$

When the tenth car is aligned the length will be 9 times the initial therefore:

$9L = \frac{1}{2} at_3^2$

When the tenth car has passed the length will be 10 times the initial therefore:

$10L = \frac{1}{2}at_4^2$

The difference in time taken from the second car to pass it is 5 seconds, therefore:

$t_2-t_1 = 5s$

From the first equation replacing it in the second one we will have that the relationship of the two times is equivalent to:

$\frac{1}{2} = (\frac{t_1}{t_2})^2$

$t_1 = \frac{t_2}{\sqrt{2}}$

From the relationship when the car has passed and the time difference we will have to:

$(t_2-\frac{t_2}{\sqrt{2}}) = 5$

$t_2 (\sqrt{2}-1) = 3\sqrt{2}$

$t_2= (\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1})^2$

Replacing the value found in the equation given for the second car equation we have to:

$\frac{L}{a} = \frac{1}{4} (\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1})^2$

Finally we will have the time when the cars are aligned is

$18 \frac{1}{4} (\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1})^2 = t_3^2$

$t_3 = 36.213s$

The time when you have passed it would be:

$20\frac{1}{4} (\frac{5\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1})^2 = t_4^2$

$t_4 = 38.172$

The difference between the two times would be:

$t_4-t_3 = 38.172-36.213 \approx 2s$

Therefore the correct answer is C.

it takes a hose 4 minutes to fill a rectangular aquarium 9 inches long, 13 inces wide, and 14 inces tall. how long will it take

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: 43.58 min

Explanation:

Knowing the volume of a rectangular object is length x width x height, we have two volumes:

$V_{1}=(9 in)(13 in)(14 in)=1638 in^{3}$

$V_{2}=(21 in)(25 in)(34 in)=17850 in^{3}$

And we know it takes a time of 4 minutes to fill $V_{1}$ .

If we want to know how long will it take the same hose to fill another tank with volume $V_{2}$ , we can use the <u>Rule of three</u>, which is a mathematical rule to find out an amount that is with another quantity given in the same relation as other two also known:

$1638in^{3}$ ---- $4min$

$17850in^{3}$ ---- $?$

$?=\frac{(17850 in^{3})(4min)}{1638 in^{3}}$

Finally:

$?=43.58 min$

Assume charge builds up on the cloud and on the ground until a uniform electric field of 4.00 ✕ 106 N/C throughout the space bet

kumpel [21]

Answer:

The value of the maximum charge the cloud can hold Q = 177.08 coulomb

Explanation:

Given data

Electrical Field E = 4 × $10^{6}$ $\frac{N}{C}$

the maximum charge the cloud can hold is given by

Q = E A x ---- (1)

where A = area = 5 × $10^{6}$

x = electrical Permittivity of air = 8.854 × $10^{-12}$

Q = (4 × $10^{6}$ ) (5 × $10^{6}$ ) ( 8.854 × $10^{-12}$ )

Q = 177.08 coulomb

This is the value of the maximum charge the cloud can hold.
