Answer:

(B) The world around you.

Explanation:

Science is an endeavor that does just that: asks questions about the world around us, and attempts to answer them, too. The questions it asks, when formulated precisely, are referred to as <em>hypotheses</em> (so the answer D is incorrect here). Scientists develop theories and observe natural laws (covered by choice C), design experiments and evaluate test results (choice A). But in the end, it is all about asking scientific questions about the world around you. The choice (B) is the best answer.

regrine falcons frequently grab prey birds from the air. Sometimes they strike at high enough speeds that the force of the impac

solmaris [256]

Answers:

a) 30 m/s

b) 480 N

Explanation:

The rest of the question is written below:

a. What is the final speed of the falcon and pigeon?

b. What is the average force on the pigeon during the impact?

<h3>a) Final speed</h3>

This part can be solved by the Conservation of linear momentum principle, which establishes the initial momentum $p_{i}$ before the collision must be equal to the final momentum $p_{f}$ after the collision:

$p_{i}=p_{f}$ (1)

Being:

$p_{i}=MV_{i}+mU_{i}$

$p_{f}=(M+m) V$

Where:

$M=480 g \frac{1 kg}{1000 g}=0.48 kg$ the mas of the peregrine falcon

$V_{i}=45 m/s$ the initial speed of the falcon

$m=240 g \frac{1 kg}{1000 g}=0.24 kg$ is the mass of the pigeon

$U_{i}=0 m/s$ the initial speed of the pigeon (at rest)

$V$ the final speed of the system falcon-pigeon

Then:

$MV_{i}+mU_{i}=(M+m) V$ (2)

Finding $V$ :

$V=\frac{MV_{i}}{M+m}$ (3)

$V=\frac{(0.48 kg)(45 m/s)}{0.48 kg+0.24 kg}$ (4)

$V=30 m/s$ (5) This is the final speed

<h3>b) Force on the pigeon</h3>

In this part we will use the following equation:

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$ (6)

Where:

$F$ is the force exerted on the pigeon

$\Delta t=0.015 s$ is the time

$\Delta p$ is the pigeon's change in momentum

Then:

$\Delta p=p_{f}-p_{i}=mV-mU_{i}$ (7)

$\Delta p=mV$ (8) Since $U_{i}=0$

Substituting (8) in (6):

$F=\frac{mV}{\Delta t}$ (9)

$F=\frac{(0.24 kg)(30 m/s)}{0.015 s}$ (10)

Finally:

$F=480 N$

A football is place kicked with a velocity having a vertical component of 12 m/s and a horizontal component of 6 m/s. Find the r

SSSSS [86.1K]

The velocity is given by:

V = √(Vx²+Vy²)

V = velocity, Vx = horizontal velocity, Vy = vertical velocity

Given values:

Vx = 6m/s, Vy = 12m/s

Plug in and solve for V:

V = √(6²+12²)

V = 13.42m/s

Now find the direction:

θ = tan⁻¹(Vy/Vx)

θ = angle of velocity off horizontal, Vy = vertical velocity, Vx = horizontal velocity

Given values:

Vx = 6m/s, Vy = 12m/s

Plug in and solve for θ:

θ = tan⁻¹(12/6)

θ = 63.4°

The resultant velocity is 13.42m/s at an angle of 63.4° off the horizontal.

Power grid
All the poles and wires you see along the highway and in front of your house are called the electrical transmission and distribution system. Today, generating stations all across the country are connected to each other through the electrical system (sometimes called the "power grid").
