<span>Velocity is a vector quantity, that's formally defined as the rate of change of position or displacement with time. When stating any vector like the velocity of an object, we talk about direction, as well as magnitude. That's why speed and velocity are different things. Speed is a scalar (a pure number, specified by magnitude, without direction), while velocity is a vector. To put it simply, speed is the magnitude of the velocity. When talking about velocity, we specify it according to some fixed frame of reference and its unit is meters/second. It can be measured in two ways. One is in the form of average velocity, while the other is instantaneous velocity. The formula for the former is as follows.</span>

Help please:Calculate the mechanical energy of a bird flying at a speed of 10 m / s at an altitude of 15 m. If its mass is 150 g

Sonja [21]

Mass of the bird(m) = 150 g = 0.15 kg

Speed (v) = 10 m/s

Kinetic Energy = $\frac{1}{2}m v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} 0.15 (10)^{2}$ = 7.5 J

Altitude (h) = 15 m

Gravitational Potential Energy = (0.15)(9.81)(15) = 22.0725 J

Mechanical Energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy = 7.5 + 22.0725

= 29.5725 J

The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance x is given by U(x)=−C6/x6, where C6 is a positive

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be " $-\frac{6C_{6}}{x^{7}}$ ". The further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The potential energy will be,

⇒ $U(x)= -\frac{C_{6}}{x^6}$

The expression of force will be,

⇒ $F=-\frac{dU(x)}{dx}$

⇒ $=-(C_{6}(-6)x^{-7})$

⇒ $=-\frac{6C_{6}}{x^{7}}$

Force seems to be appealing because the expression has been negative. It therefore means that the force or substance is acting laterally in on itself.

A plane travels at a speed of 205mph in still air. Flying with a tailwind, the plane is clocked over a distance of 1000 miles. F

While plane is moving under tailwind condition it took time "t"

so here we will have

$t = \frac{d}{v_{net}}$
