Answer:

bird's speed  = 4.58 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of bird mb = 300 g

velocity of bird vb = 5.7 m/s

mass of insect mi = 10 g

velocity of insect vi = - 29 m/s

solution

here momentum of system is constant

we apply here conservation of momentum so

mb × v + mi × v = mb × vb + mi × vi   ....................1

v ( mb + mi ) = mb × vb + mi × vi  

put here value and we get

v ( 300 + 10 ) = { 300 × 5.7 }  +  { 10 × (-29) }

v = \frac{1710-290}{310}  

v = 4.58 m/s

a girl that has a mass of 55kg is standing on a floor, how much supporting force does the floor have?
KengaRu [80]
A girl standing on a floor would have two opposite forces acting on it. These forces are the weight and the normal force. Since no other forces are acting and that the girl is at rest, then the weight must equate to the normal force. Therefore, the supporting force would be:

F = mg = 55kg (9.81 m/s^2) = 539.55 N

What hidden costs of using DDT did Rachel Carson call attention to?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The ban was intended to prevent the imminent extinction of ospreys, peregrine falcons, and bald eagles, our national bird, among other species; they were vulnerable because DDT caused a fatal thinning of eggshells, which collapsed under the weight of the parent incubating them.

Explanation:

The hidden cost was to control pests was washing off into rivers and streams, poisoning fish, birds, and even humans with toxic chemicals.
