4. A student writes, “A bird that is diving for prey has a speed of − 10 m /s .” What is wrong with the student's statement? What has the student actually described? Explain.
Homework Answers
Speed is a scalar quantity. Its has only magnitude and no direction. student is saying speed of -10m/s ,so this statement is wrong since negative sign here indicating the direction.
Student has actually described the velocity ( which has both magnitude as well as direction).

The peregrine falcon (see figure) is the fastest bird, flying at a speed of 200 mi/h. Nature has adapted the bird to reach such a speed by placing baffles in its noseto prevent air from rushing in and slowing it down. Also, the bird's eyes adjust their focus faster than the eyes of any other creature, so the falcon can focusquickly on its prey. Assume that a peregrine falcon is moving horizontally at its top speed at a height of...

2) A student is performing an angry bird experiment in real life. He calculates the range of the projectile by shooting the bird with a 30 degree angle and an initial velocity of v0 = 20 m/s. a) If the relative accuracy of setting the projectile angle is delta theta/theta = 0.05, what would be the accuracy of the range estimation? b) If the relative accuracy of setting the projectile initial speed is delta V/V= 0.1, what would be the...

A 290 g bird flying along at 5.8 m/s sees a 9.0 g insect heading straight toward it with a speed of 25 m/s (as measured by an observer on the ground, not by the bird). The bird opens its mouth wide and enjoys a nice lunch. What is the bird's speed immediately after swallowing? I tried plugging in the numbers using answers from other questions and got 3.8m/s but it says it is wrong: 0.29*5.8 + 0.009*(-25) = 0.38*V

A student is running at her top speed of 5.0 m/s to catch a bus, which is stopped at the bus stop. When the student is still a distance 38.8 m from the bus, it starts to pull away, moving with a constant acceleration of 0.167 m/s2 . A. For how much time does the student have to run at 5.0 m/s before she overtakes the bus? B. For what distance does the student have to run at 5.0 m/s...
