Constants Canada geese migrate essentially along a north-south direction for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases, trav

eling at speeds up to about 100 km/h. The one goose is flying at 100 km/h relative to the air but a 44 km/h wind is blowing from west to east.
1. At what angle relative to the north-south direction should this bird head so that it will be traveling directly southward relative to the ground?2. How long will it take the bird to cover a ground distance of 450 from north to south?

Answer:

<em>a. 63.89°  in the north-southward manner</em>

<em>b.  2.2 sec</em>

<em></em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The goose is flying at 100 km/h

Air from east to west is 44 km/h

angle relative to the north-south direction for the bird to travel south will be

cos∅ = 44/100 = 0.44

∅ = cos^{-1}0.44 = <em>63.89°  in the north-southward manner</em>

<em></em>

Speed south relative to the ground will be v

Tan 63.89 = v/100

2.04 = v/100

v = 2.04 x 100 = 204 km/hr

to cover a distance of 450 m from north to south at this speed time will be

t = d/v = 450/204 =<em> 2.2 sec</em>

A cat is shot horizontally out of a cannon that is on top of a 125 meter tall cliff. If the cat lands 286 m away from the base o
Elden [556K]

The initial velocity of the cat is 56.6 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the cat is a projectile motion, consisting of:

- a uniform horizontal motion with constant velocity

- a vertical accelerated motion with constant acceleration (free fall)

We start by analyzing the vertical motion, to find the time it takes for the cat to reach the ground. We use the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where we have (choosing downard as positive direction)

s = 125 m is the vertical displacement of the cat

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time taken to reach the ground

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for t, we find

t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(125)}{9.8}}=5.05 s

Now we can analzye the horizontal motion. Since the motion is uniform and the horizontal velocity is constant, it is given by

v_x =\frac{d}{t}

where

d = 286 m is the horizontal distance travelled

t = 5.05 s is the time taken

Solving the equation,

v_x = \frac{286}{5.05}=56.6 m/s

Why can’t we see black holes? Question 11 options: A.Because they don't want to be seen. B.Because the sun is too far away from
Vika [28.1K]

We can't see black holes because D) no light can get out

Explanation:

Black holes are the result of the gravitational collapse of a supermassive star.

The life of a supermassive star ends with a huge explosion, called supernova, that leaves behing a super-dense core called black hole.

Black holes are the most dense objects of the universe, having a huge mass in a super small size. For this reason, the gravitational force exerted by a black hole in its proximity is so strong that even light is not able to escape from the gravitational field. For this reason, light from a black hole is not able to reach us, and so we are not able to see these objects.

The "edge" of space beyond which light remains "trapped" inside the black hole is called event horizon, and no object can escape this region of space.

The radius of the event horizon of a black hole is called Schwarzschild radius and it is given by:

r=\frac{2GM}{c^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the black hole

c is the speed of light

2. A common physics experiment involves lowering an open tube into a cylinder of water and moving the tube up and down to adjust
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Explanation:

This question pertains to resonance in air column.  It is the case of closed air column in which fundamental note is formed at a length which is as follows

l = λ / 4 where l is length of tube and λ is wave length.

here l = .26 m

λ = .26 x 4 = 1.04 m

frequency of sound = 330 Hz

velocity of sound = frequency x wave length

= 330 x 1.04

= 343.2 m /s

b )

Next overtone will be produced at 3 times the length

so next length of air column = 3 x 26

= 78 cm

c )

If frequency of sound = 256 Hz

wavelength = velocity / frequency

= 343.2 / 256

= 1.34 m

= 134 cm

length of air column for resonance

= wavelength / 4

134/4

= 33.5 cm
