Answer:

Explanation:

When a falcon is hovering, the force of up thrust is balanced by the weight.

When it begins to fall towards the ground, the weight acts downwards, kinetic friction is upwards, drag is upwards, normal force is upwards, thrust is upwards.

<span>The formulas are, v1d1² = v2d2² ........ (1) h = (v2²-v1²)/2g ...... (2) Given that, v1 = 1.71 m/s we assume that the stream has decreased by a factor d2 =0.805d1 then, v1d1² = v2 (0.805d1)² cancelled both side d1² then we get, v1 = v2 (0.805)² v1 = v2 (0.648025) Sub v1 = 1.71, 1.71 = v2 (0.648025) v2 = 1.71/0.648025 v2 = 2.638787083831642 v2 = 2.64 m/s The vertical distance formula, h = (v2²-v1²)/2g We know that value of gravity constant is 9.8 m/s² h = {(2.64)² - (1.71)²)/2(9.8) h = {(6.9696) - (2.9241)}/19.6 h = (4.0455)/19.6 h = 0.2064030612244898 h = 0.21 cm Therefore, the vertical distance h = 0.21 cm.</span>

What energy change takes place when the photovoltaic cell absorbs sunlight?
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Solar energy - Chemical energy - Electrical energy

Explanation:

A photovoltaic is a device which operates with respect to its exposure to radiation or light. This property determines its applications in electronics.

The energy from sunlight is in the form of solar energy, which get absorbed by the photovoltaic cell. The cell transforms the solar energy and store it as chemical energy. This is now finally transformed majorly into electrical energy as the output energy from the cell. Some amount of heat energy is produced in the process.

Contact [7]
A) Vi= 60 m/s
a= -9.81 m/s^2
Vf= 0m/s^2
d=?

Vf^2=Vi^2+2ad
(0m/s)^2=(60m/s)^2+2(-9.81m/s^2)d
0=3600+(-19.62)d
-3600=(-19.62)d
(-3600)/(-19.62)=(-19.62)d/(-19.62)
d=183.5m

c) Vi= 60 m/s
a= -9.81 m/s^2
Vf= 0m/s^2
t=10s
d=?

d=Vi*t+(1/2)a*t^2
d=60m/s(10s)+(1/2)(-9.81m/s^2)(10s)^2
d=600+(-4.905)(100)
d=600+(-490.5)
d=108.5m
