In an experiment, a shearwater (a seabird) was taken from its nest, flown a distance 5220 km away, and released. It found its wa

y back to its nest a time 12.9 days after release.
a. If we place the origin in the nest and extend the +x-axis to the release point, what was the bird's average velocity for the return flight?b. What was the bird's average velocity in m/s for the whole episode, from leaving the nest to returning?

Answer:

4.6834625323 m/s

0 m/s

Explanation:

s = Displacement

t = Time

Velocity is given by

v=\dfrac{s}{t}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{5220000}{12.9\times 24\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow v=4.6834625323\ m/s

The bird's average velocity for the return flight is 4.6834625323 m/s

In the whole episode the bird went 5220 km away from its nest and came back. This means the displacement is zero.

Hence, the average velocity for the whole episode is 0 m/s

Answer:

a)

b) v_{avg}=0\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • distance the bird flew away from the nest, d=5220\ km
  • time taken by the bird to return  to its nest, t=12.9\ days=309.6\ hr

a.

On taking the origin at the nest and +x axis at the release point we have the release position as 5220 kilometers.

Now the bird's average return velocity:

v=\frac{d}{t}

v=\frac{5220}{309.6}

v=16.86\ km.hr^{-1}

b.

Now we find the bird's total displacement in the whole episode to be zero because it returns to the origin.

And since average velocity is the total displacement per unit time, so it is also zero.

Define an astronomical unit. Choose all that apply. a. 8.3 minutes Average distance from Earth to the Sun. b. Distance that ligh
Naddik [55]

Answer:

a. 8.3 minutes average distance from earth to the sun

d. 93 miles or 150 million km

Explanation:

The distance between the earth and the sun is defined as an astronomical unit (AU). It takes 8.3 minutes to go from earth to the sun at the speed of light. That distance has a length of 150 million Kilometers or 93 miles.  

It is common to see in planet charts that distance to the sun are compared in astronomical units. In the case of Mars is 1.524 AU away from the sun.

Solve for work when
BlackZzzverrR [31]

So, <u>the value of the work is approximately 84.65 J</u>.

<h2>Introduction</h2>

Hi ! Here I will help you to discuss the subject about work that caused by force in amount value of angle. Work is affected by the force and displacement.

  • If related to the magnitude of the force, the amount of work will be proportional to the magnitude of the applied force. Thats mean, if the value of the force that applied on it is greater, then the value of the work will be greater.
  • If related to the magnitude of shift, the amount of work will be proportional to the magnitude of shift of object. Thats mean, if the value of the shift on it is greater, then the value of the work will be greater.
<h3>Formula Used</h3>

The work done by a moving object can be expressed in the equation:

If the Angle Is Ignored

\boxed{\sf{\bold{W = F \times s}}}

If the Angle Effect on Work

\boxed{\sf{\bold{W = F \times s \times \cos(\theta)}}}

With the following condition:

  • W = work that done by object (J)
  • F = force that applied (N)
  • s = shift or distance (m)
  • \sf{\theta} = angle of elevation (°)

<h3>Solution</h3>

We know that :

  • F = force that applied = \sf{1.41 \times 10^4} N
  • s = shift or distance = 84.9 m
  • \sf{\theta} = angle of elevation = 45°

What was asked ?

  • W = work that done by object = ... J

Step by step :

\sf{W = F \times s \times \cos(\theta)}

\sf{W = (1.41 \cdot 10^4) \times 84.9 \times \cos(45^o)}

\sf{W = (1.41 \cdot 10^4) \times 84.9 \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}

\sf{W = 119.709 \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}

\sf{W = 59.8545 \sqrt{2}}

\boxed{\sf{W \approx 84.65 \: J}}

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

So, the value of the work is approximately 84.65 J.

traveling at about 30 mph, how many feet will the average driver cover from the time they see the danger until they hit the brak
barxatty [35]

Answer: 75 ft

Explanation:

Breaking distance = Speed²/ 20

= 30²/20

= 45 feet

Stopping distance = Speed + braking distance

= 30 + 45

= 75 ft
