A hawk is flying horizontally at 18.0 m/s in a straight line, 230 m above the ground. A mouse it has been carrying struggles fre
Lisa [10]

Answer:

a) vd = 47.88 m/s

b) θ = 80.9°

c) t = 6.8 s

Explanation:

In the situation of the problem, you can assume that the trajectory of the hawk and the trajectory of the mouse form a rectangle triangle.

One side of the triangle is the horizontal trajectory of the hawk after 2.00s of flight, the other side of the triangle is the distance traveled by the mouse when it is falling down. And the hypotenuse is the trajectory of the hawk when it is trying to recover the mouse.

(a) In order to calculate the diving speed of the hawk, you first calculate the hypotenuse of the triangle.

One side of the triangle is c1 = (18.0m/s)(2.0s) = 36m

The other side of the triangle is c2 = 230m - 3m = 227 m

Then, the hypotenuse is:

h=\sqrt{(36m)^2+(227m)^2}=229.83m    (1)

Next, it is necessary to calculate the falling down time of the mouse, this can be done by using the following formula:

y=y_o+v_ot+\frac{1}{2}gt^2    (2)

yo: initial height = 230m

vo: initial vertical speed of the mouse = 0m/s

g: gravitational acceleration = -9.8m/s^2

y: final height of the mouse = 3 m

You replace the values of the parameters in (2) and solve for t:

3=230-4.9t^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\frac{227}{4.9}}=6.8s

The hawk traveled during 2.00 second in the horizontal trajectory, hence, the hawk needed 6.8s - 2.0s = 4.8 s to travel the distance equivalent to the hypotenuse to catch the mouse.

You use the value of h and 4.8s to find the diving speed of the hawk:

v_d=\frac{229.83m}{4.8s}=47.88\frac{m}{s}

The diving speed of the Hawk is 47.88m/s

(b) The angle is given by:

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{c_1}{h})=cos^{-1}(\frac{36m}{229.83m})=80.9 \°

Then angle between the horizontal and the trajectory of the Hawk when it is descending is 80.9°

(c) The mouse is falling down during 6.8 s

nordsb [41]

Answer:

42m/s

6.06s

Explanation:

To find the initial velocity and time in which the ball is fling over the ground you use the following formulas:

x_{max}=\frac{v_o^2sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\\x_{max}=vt_{max}

θ: angle = 45°

vo: initial velocity

g: gravitational constant = 9.8m/s^2

x_max: max distance = 180 m

t_max: max time

by replacing the values of the parameters and do vo the subject of the first formula you obtain:

v_o=\sqrt{\frac{gx_{max}}{sin(2\theta)}}\\\\v_o=\sqrt{\frac{(9.8m/s^2)(180m)}{sin(2(45\°))}}=42\frac{m}{s}

with this value of vo you calculate the max time:

t_{max}=\frac{x_{max}}{v}=\frac{x_{max}}{v_ocos(45\°)}\\\\t_{max}=\frac{180m}{(42m/s)cos(45\°)}=6.06s

hence, the initial velocity of the ball is 42m/s and the time in which the ball is in the air is 6.06s

TRANSLATION:

Para encontrar la velocidad inicial y el tiempo en el que la pelota está volando sobre el suelo, use las siguientes fórmulas:

θ: ángulo = 45 °

vo: velocidad inicial

g: constante gravitacional = 9.8m / s ^ 2

x_max: distancia máxima = 180 m

t_max: tiempo máximo

reemplazando los valores de los parámetros y haciendo el tema de la primera fórmula que obtiene:

con este valor de vo usted calcula el tiempo máximo:

por lo tanto, la velocidad inicial de la pelota es de 42 m / sy el tiempo en que la pelota está en el aire es de 6.06 s
