Answer:

The average momentum of the bird is 0.26 kgm/s

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is that of momentum which is

momentum (in kgm/s) = mass (in kg) × velocity (in m/s)

The velocity of the bird is

velocity (in m/s) = distance (in meter) ÷ time (in seconds)

distance in meters = 125km × 1000 = 125,000 m

time in seconds = 4 hrs × 60 × 60 = 14,400 secs

velocity = 125000/14400

velocity = 8.68 m/s

momentum (p) = 0.03 × 8.68

p = 0.26 kgm/s

The average momentum of the bird is 0.26 kgm/s

A car is traveling at 15 m/sm/s . Part A How fast would the car need to go to double its kinetic energy
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

21.21 m/s

Explanation:

Let KE₁ represent the initial kinetic energy.

Let v₁ represent the initial velocity.

Let KE₂ represent the final kinetic energy.

Let v₂ represent the final velocity.

Next, the data obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (v₁) = 15 m/s

Initial kinetic Energy (KE₁) = E

Final final energy (KE₂) = double the initial kinetic energy = 2E

Final velocity (v₂) =?

Thus, the velocity (v₂) with which the car we travel in order to double it's kinetic energy can be obtained as follow:

KE = ½mv²

NOTE: Mass (m) = constant (since we are considering the same car)

KE₁/v₁² = KE₂/v₂²

E /15² = 2E/v₂²

E/225 = 2E/v₂²

Cross multiply

E × v₂² = 225 × 2E

E × v₂² = 450E

Divide both side by E

v₂² = 450E /E

v₂² = 450

Take the square root of both side.

v₂ = √450

v₂ = 21.21 m/s

Therefore, the car will travel at 21.21 m/s in order to double it's kinetic energy.

As a ship comes into view over the horizon the top appears before the rest of the ship how does this demonstrate the earth is sp
valina [46]
Since its a sphere, the top is seen first because its the tallest part if the ship. If the earth was flat, the whole ship would be seen.
