- An arrow hits a tree penetrating 10 cm as it is brought to rest from its initial speed of 50 m/s inside the tree. The arrows mass was 50 g. a) what average force did the tree exert on the arrow to bring it to rest? arrow_forwardA force of F=x^2 in Newtons acts on an object of mass m= 2 kg. If the object is at rest at x= 0 when the force F begins to act on it, what is the object’s speed at the position x= 3 m? A) 3 m/s B) 6 m/s C) 9 m/s D) 27 m/sarrow_forwardThe mass of a pigeon hawk is twice that of the pigeons it hunts. Suppose a pigeon is gliding north at a speed of ?P=18.2 m/svP=18.2 m/s when a hawk swoops down, grabs the pigeon, and flies off, as shown in the figure. The hawk was flying north at a speed of ?H=33.1 m/s,vH=33.1 m/s, at an angle ?=45∘θ=45∘ below the horizontal at the instant of the attack. What is the birds' final speed ?fvf just after the attack? ?f=vf= m/sm/s What is the angle ?fθf below the horizontal of the final velocity vector of the birds just after the attack? ?f=θf= ∘arrow_forward
