To protect their young in the nest, peregrine falcons will fly into birds of prey (such as ravens) at high speed. In one such ep

isode, a 600-g falcon flying at 20.0 m/s hit a 1.50-kg raven flying at 9.0 m/s. The falcon hit the raven at right angles to its original path and bounced back at 5.0 m/s. (These figures were estimated by the author as he watched this attack occur in northern New Mexico.) (a) By what angle did the falcon change the raven’s direction of motion? (b) What was the raven’s speed right after the collision?

Answer:

Part a)

\theta = 48 degree

Part b)

v = 13.45 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

mass of the Falcon bird is given as

m = 600 g

initial speed of the bird is

v_i = 20 m/s

final speed of the bird is given as

v_f = 5 m/s (opposite direction)

So here the impulse given by falcon bird is given as

I = m(v_f - v_i)

I = 0.600(20 + 5)

I = 15 kg m/s

now the final momentum of Raven bird in perpendicular direction is given as

I = mv_y

15 = 1.50 v_y

v_y = 10 m/s

now the change in the angle of the raven bird is given as

tan\theta = \frac{v_y}{v_x}

tan\theta = \frac{10}{9}

\theta = 48 degree

Part b)

Final speed of the raven bird is given as

v^2 = v_x^2 + v_y^2

v^2 = 9^2 + 10^2

v = 13.45 m/s

On a clear day at a certain location, a 119-V/m vertical electric field exists near the Earth's surface. At the same place, the
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

(a) 62.69 nJ/m^3

(b) 1015.22 μJ/m^3

Explanation:

Electric field, E = 119 V/m

Magnetic field, B = 5.050 x 10^-5 T

(a) Energy density of electric field = \frac{1}{2}\varepsilon _{0}E^{2}

          =\frac{1}{2}\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}\times 119\times 119

          = 6.269 x 10^-8 J/m^3 = 62.69 nJ/m^3

(b) energy density of magnetic field = \frac{B^{2}}{2\mu _{0}}

=\frac{\left ( 5.05\times 10^{-5} \right )^{2}}{2\times 4\times 3.14\times 10^{-7}}

= 1.01522 x 10^-3 J/m^3 = 1015.22 μJ/m^3

The plane of a rectangular coil, 7.2 cm by 3.7 cm, is perpendicular to the direction of a uniform magnetic field B. If the coil
netineya [11]

Answer:

The rate of change of magnetic field is 2.23 T/s.              

Explanation:

Given that,

Dimension of rectangular coil is 7.2 cm by 3.7 cm.

Number of turns in the coil, N = 104

Resistance of the coil, R = 12.4 ohms

Current, I = 0.05 A

We need to find the rate of change of magnetic field in the coil. The induced emf is given by the rate of change of magnetic flux. So,

\epsilon=-\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}

Ohm's law is :

\epsilon=IR

So,

IR=-\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}\\\\IR=-\dfrac{d(NBA)}{dt}\\\\IR=-NA\dfrac{dB}{dt}\\\\\dfrac{dB}{dt}=\dfrac{IR}{NA}\\\\\dfrac{dB}{dt}=\dfrac{0.05\times 12.4}{104\times 7.2\times 10^{-2}\times 3.7\times 10^{-2}}\\\\\dfrac{dB}{dt}=2.23\ T/s

So, the rate of change of magnetic field is 2.23 T/s.

Find the mass of an object on planet F if its weight is 650 N (g = 13m/s^2)
Andrew [12]

Answer:

the object's mass is 50 kg

Explanation:

We use Newton's second law to solve for the mass:

F = m * a , then   m = F / a

In our case, the acceleration is the gravitational acceleration on the planet, and the force is the weight of the object on the planet. So we get:

m = w / a = 650 N / 13 m/s^2 = 50 kg

Then, the object's mass is 50 kg.

24. A anvil with a mass of 60 kg falls from a height of 9.5 m. How fast is it going right
shepuryov [24]

So they give us this

V=IR

V= 1.8

I=0.4

R=?

So we insert the thing that we know.

1.8=0.4*R

We need to leave our unknown value alone. So if our value of 0.4 is multiplying the unknown value it passes to the other side dividing.

So we have this.

Lastly we solve.

R=4.5ohms

The formula to find R is V=IR

V/I=R

So the resistance will be the Voltage divided by the Current
