17.7m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of branch = 16m

Unknown:

Velocity before falling = ?

Solution:

We are going to use the appropriate motion equation to solve this problem.

The bird is falling in line with the action of gravity.

Initial velocity is 0 for the bird.

Let the velocity during flight = V;

 Then;

             V² = U²  + 2gH

since U = 0

      V² = 2gH

    V is the unknown velocity

     H is the height of fall

     g is the acceleration due to gravity

    V = √2gH = √ 2x9.8 x 16 = 17.7m/s

Scilla [17]

Answer:

student  A or B

Explanation:

A common demonstration is to put a ringing alarm clock or bell in the bell jar, and when the vacuum is created, you can no longer hear the sound of the clock/bell.

The bell is connected to a lab pack or batteries and rung to show pupils it can be heard under normal circumstances. The bell jar is then connected to a vacuum pump using a vacuum plate (see Fig 2) and the air is removed from inside creating a near vacuum. The bell is then again rung. This time however, it cannot be heard.

Small low voltage buzzers can be used as a bell replacement for the bell and work in exactly the same way though teachers generally prefer bells as students may be able to see the hammer moving, proving that it is actually ringing even though they cannot hear it.

Some vacuum pumps are better than others at keeping a strong vacuum though if you cannot completely lose the sound, you will at least notice the volume decreasing.

Sound is simply a series of longitudinal waves travelling from the source, through the air to our ears. Without air present, these waves cannot form and therefore sound cannot be conveyed.

In a longitudinal wave the particles oscillate back and forth in the direction of the wave movement unlike transverse waves which like waves on the sea, single particles travel up and down and not in the direction of the wave.

Because you will not be able to create a perfect vacuum, you may still be able to hear the bell ring slightly. Vibrations from the ringing bell can also travel up to the bung in the bell jar which in turn may resonate the jar slightly. This means you may hear the bell ring, however strong the vacuum. To compensate for this, try to insulate the bell as much as possible from the bell jar. Hanging the bell using elastic cord means some of the vibrations will be absorbed by the cord and not be transferred to the bell jar.

A large mass collides with a stationary, smaller mass. How will the masses behave if the collision is inelastic?
iragen [17]
Logically both masses will collide and well make a reaction. first of all depending on the small mass it will either merge or unite with the big mass or it will bounce away from it . if this happen it will make a reaction that will affect both masses. Hope this helps if it is incorrect please let me know :)

A commuter airplane starts from an airport and takes theroute. The plane first flies to city A, located 175 km away in a directi
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

245.45km in a direction 21.45° west of north from city A

Explanation:

Let's place the origin of a coordinate system at city A.

The final position of the airplane is given by:

rf = ra + rb + rc    where ra, rb and rc are the vectors of the relative displacements the airplane has made. If we separate this equation into its x and y coordinates:

rfX = raX+ rbX + rcX = 175*cos(30)-150*sin(20)-190 = -89.75km

rfY = raY + rbY + rcT = 175*sin(30)+150*cos(20) = 228.45km

The module of this position is:

rf = \sqrt{rfX^2+rfY^2} = 245.45km

And the angle measure from the y-axis is:

\alpha =atan(rfX/rfY) = 21.45\°

So the answer is 245.45km in a direction 21.45° west of north from city A
