<span>21.5 ft/s^2 The formula for distance traveled under constant acceleration is d = 0.5 AT^2 where d = distance A = acceleration T = time Solving for A, gives d = 0.5 AT^2 2d = AT^2 (1) 2d/T^2 = A The formula for velocity under constant acceleration is V = AT Solving for A, gives V = AT (2) V/T = A Now setting equations (1) and (2) above equal to each other and solving for T: V/T = 2d/T^2 TV = 2d (3) T = 2d/V Now substitute equation (3) into (2) above. V/T = A V/(2d/V) = A V * V/2d = A V^2/2d = A Plug in values and calculate. V^2/2d = A (44 ft/s)^2/(2*45 ft) = A (1936 ft^2/s^2)/(90 ft) = A 21.51111111 ft/s^2 = A Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 21.5 ft/s^2</span>

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

r=6.05km/hr

z=59.1 degree to the horizontal

Explanation:

A bird is flying east at 5.2 kilometers/hour relative to the air. There's a crosswind blowing at 3.1 kilometers/hour toward the south relative to the ground. What is the bird's velocity relative to the ground? State your answer to one decimal place

can be solved using pythagoras theorem

r^2=o^2+a^2

r^2=5.2^2+3.1^2

r^2=36.65

r=6.1km/hr is te birds velocity relative to the ground

tanz=5.2/3.1

z=tan^-1(5,2/3.1)

z=59.1 degree to the horizontal
