An injured monkey sits perched on a tree branch 4.5 m above the ground, while a wildlife veterinarian is kneeling down in the bu

shes 85.5 m away attempting to subdue the monkey with a tranquilizer gun. The vet knows that the moment the gun fires, the monkey will be frightened and fall down from the branch. At what angle up from the ground must the veterinarian aim the gun so that the tranquilizer dart will hit the falling monkey

Answer:

3.03°

Explanation:

Given that

Height of the tree branch, h = 4.5 m

Distance of the veterinarian away, d = 85.5 m

The vet is to aim at the monkey at a particular angle. If we consider the force of gravity that will be acting on the dart. Then the angle that will be needed will be calculated as this.

So the angle is

Tan θ = opposite / adjacent

Tan θ = 4.5 m/ 85.5 m

Tan θ = 0.053, then

θ = Tan^-1 (0.053)

θ = 3.03°

Therefore, the angle needed is 3.03°

Most motorcycles could win a drag race against most cars. Use<br>Newton's 2nd law to explain this.​
shutvik [7]

Answer:

is has be deducted that acceleration of an object depends only on the the mass of the object. car has a greater mass that a motorcycle.

Explanation:

the newton second law states that when a net force act on an object,the object accelerates in the direction of the net force. the acceleration is directly proportional to the net force and inversely to the mass.

mathematically, F = ma    .......................... (eqn 1)

where, F = force, m=mass and  a = acceleration

F = m(ΔV/t)    .......................... (eqn 2)

acceleration =change in velocity divide time

t = time

v= velocity

Ft = mΔV

also a∝1/m

this same second can also mean the rate of change in momentum of an object is directly proportional to the resultant force.

Drag race is a function of acceleration, therefore, a car weighs more than a motorcycle.

the reason while motorcycle moves more faster than a car is due to the weight of the motorcycle as compare to the car. if the same acceleration is applied, and there weigth are difference, this will affect the force (causing an increased resultant force for the car), whereas time used will be affected.

for example:

a motorcycle has a weight 0f 181kg

a car has a weight 0f 1590kg

from  a∝1/m

they both will moves at a different acceleration

the force will be different

Ft = mΔV

Describe the two main ways that energy travels through the Sun.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The energy are traveled through the sun in two ways that are:

  • By the radiation
  • By the convection

As, the energy are first traveled outward from the core of the sun and then it get entered in the zone of the radiation and this zone is known as radiative zone in the surface of the sun.In the radiation process some amount of the hydrogen particle are combined and then releases the energy. And the convection is the process of conversion of one form of energy to another form.
