A Red-Tailed Hawk leaves its nest and flies 100.0 meters across the sky in 20 seconds, when it spots a garter snake on the groun

d below. It then flies 50.0 meters in 5.0 seconds to catch the snake. What was the hawk’s average speed over his entire journey?
A.) 150 m/s

B.) 3,750 m/s

C.) .17m/s

D.) 6 m/s

Speed = distance / time.

Speed of him leaving the nest:
S = 100 / 20sec

5 m/s.

Catching the snake:
S2 = 50 / 5sec

10 m/s.

Average of 5& 10 = 7.5

7.5 m/s has to be the answer.

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Force = 125 [N]

Explanation:

In the attached image we can see a sketch of the lever system.

And if we make a sum of moments at the point O equal to zero (0).

In the equation showed in the image, we can determinate the force that we need

A protein molecule in an electrophoresis gel has a negative charge. The exact charge depends on the pH of the solution, but 30 e
Reika [66]

Answer:

7.401 * 10^(-15) N

Explanation:

30 electrons will have a charge:

30 * -1.6022 * 10^(-19) C

= - 4.806 * 10^(-18) C

The relationship between electric field and electric force is:

E = F/q

This means that force, F, is

|F| = |E|*|q|

|F| = |1540| * |-4.806 * 10^(-18)|

|F| = |-7401.24 * 10^(-18)|

|F| = 7.401 * 10^(-15) N

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

U₂ = 20 J

KE₂ = 40 J

v= 12.64 m/s

Explanation:  

Given that

H= 12 m

m = 0.5 kg

h= 4 m

The potential energy at position 1

U₁ = m g H

U₁ = 0.5 x 10 x 12        ( take g= 10 m/s²)

U₁ = 60 J

The potential energy at position 2

U₂ = m g h

U ₂= 0.5 x 10 x 4        ( take g= 10 m/s²)

U₂ = 20 J

The kinetic energy at position 1

KE= 0

The kinetic energy at position 2

KE= 1/2 m V²

From energy conservation

U₁+KE₁=U₂+KE₂

By putting the values

60 - 20 = KE₂

KE₂ = 40 J

lets take final velocity is v m/s

KE₂= 1/2 m v²

By putting the values

40 = 1/2 x 0.5 x v²

160 = v²

v= 12.64 m/s

Water has the ability to dissolve polar covalent molecules like sucrose by
Alla [95]

Explanation:

Sucrose is a disaccharide which is composed of fructose and glucose. Sucrose molecule has oxygen atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms (O-H bonds - Polar groups) on all ends of its double 6-Carbon ring. The areas near the oxygen atoms are slightly negative, and the areas near the hydrogen atoms are slightly positive that is, the O-H bonds are polar. They bond with the neighbouring Oxygen and Hydrogen atoms because of their

dipole - dipole attractions and hence hydrogen bonds are formed.

However, the covalent bonds within the molecule aren't broken. But rather, the hydrogen bonds holding the sucrose molecules in the crystalline lattice.
