Assume a 2D plane and both the birds start at origin. +X is east, -X is west, +Y is North, -Y is South. 
So, after travel position of bird1 is (-2.8, 2.7) and bird2 is (-2.7,2.8);
slope of bird1 is 2.8/2.7
slope of bird2 is 2.7/2/8
Now we have two solpes b1 and b2
formula = (b2-b1)/(1+b1*b2);

Astronauts often undergo special training in which they are subjected to extremely high centripetal accelerations. One device ha
egoroff_w [7]

The centripetal acceleration of an object is given by the relation,

Ac =V^2/R

where Ac = centripetal acceleration = 98 m/s^2

R = radius of rotation = 15 m

V = speed of astronaut

Hence, \frac{V^2}{15} =98

solving this we get, V = 38.34 m/s

A certain type of laser emits light that has a frequency of 4.2 × 1014 Hz. The light, however, occurs as a series of short pulse
bogdanovich [222]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of the laser light, f=4.2\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Time, t=3.2\times 10^{-11}\ s

(a) Let \lambda is the wavelength of this light. It can be calculated as :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{4.2\times 10^{14}}

\lambda=7.14\times 10^{-7}\ m

or

\lambda=714\ nm

(b) Let n is the number of the wavelengths in one pulse. It can be calculated as :

n=f\times t

n=4.2\times 10^{14}\times 3.2\times 10^{-11}

n = 13440

Hence, this is the required solution.
