An unsuspecting bird is coasting along in an easterly direction at 3.00 mph when a strong wind from the south imparts a constant acceleration of 0.400 m/s2. If the wind\'s acceleration lasts for 2.90 s, find the magnitude r and direction θ (measured counterclockwise from the easterly direction) of the bird\'s displacement over this time interval. (HINT: assume the bird is originally travelling in the x direction and there are 1609 m in 1 mile.)
Now, assume the same bird is moving along again at 3.00 mph in an easterly direction but this time the acceleration given by the wind is at a 46.0 degree angle to the original direction of motion. If the magnitude of the acceleration is 0.500 m/s2, find the displacement vector , and the angle of the displacement, θ1. Enter the components of the vector and angle below. (Assume the time interval is still 2.90 s.)
3.00 mph = 1.34 m/s
the displacement after 2.90s is
r = 1.34m/s*2.90s i + ½*0.400m/s²*(2.90s)² j = [3.89 i + 1.68 j]
m
where "i" and "j" are the unit vectors "east" and "north"
respectively
magnitude |r| = √(3.89² + 1.68²) m = 17.96 m ◄
direction Θ = arctan(1.68/ 3.89) = 23.5º North of East ◄
Now,
r = [(1.34*2.90 + ½*0.500*cos46.0*2.90²) i + ½*0.500*sin46*2.90² j]
m
r = [5.35 i + 1.51 j] m ◄
Θ1 = arctan(1.51/5.35) = 16º ◄

EXERCISE You are traveling along an interstate highway at 35.0 m/s (about 79 mph) when a truck stops suddenly in front of you. You immediately apply your brakes and cut your speed in half after 5.0 s. Hint (a) What was your acceleration (in m/s2), assuming it was constant? (Assume you are initially traveling in the positive direction. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) -3.5 m/s2 (b) How long (in s) did it take you to stop...

Birds have evolved to the ability to control their motions through the air by controlling the forces exerted on their bodies by the air; the contact forces on a bird by the air plus the force of gravity on the bird by the Earth determine the change in motion of the bird at any instant of time. In this problem, you will be asked to use what you know about acceleration to track the motion of a diving hawk. A...
