**Peregrine Falcons and Impact Dynamics****Scenario Overview:**Peregrine falcons are known to capture prey birds mid-air, sometimes reaching high speeds that their impact can disable these birds. A 480 g peregrine falcon spots a 240 g pigeon below. The falcon initially slows down and then accelerates into a dive, known as a stoop, reaching a vertical speed of 45 m/s before striking the pigeon, which is initially stationary. Upon collision, the falcon captures the pigeon with its talons. The impact duration is 0.015 seconds.**Problem Statements:****Part A:**- **Question:** What is the final speed of the falcon-pigeon system after impact?- **Requirement:** Provide the answer with appropriate units.- **Input Box:** - Symbol: \( v_{fp} = \) - Two fields to enter numerical value and units.**Part B:**- **Question:** What is the average force experienced by the pigeon during the collision?- **Requirement:** Provide the answer with appropriate units.- **Input Box:** - Symbol: \( F_{p,av} = \) - Two fields to enter numerical value and units.This exercise applies principles of momentum conservation and force calculations during a collision event.

The mass of the falcon is: mf = 480 g = 0.480 kg The mass of the pigeon is: mp = 240 g = 0.240 kgThe…

Peregrine falcons frequently grab prey birds from the air. Sometimes they strike at high enough speeds that the force of the impact disables prey birds. A 480 g peregrine falcon high in the sky spies a 240 g pigeon some distance below. The falcon slows to a near stop, then goes into a dive--called a stoop--and picks up speed as she falls. The falcon reaches a vertical speed of 45 m/s before striking the pigeon, which we can assume is stationary. The falcon strikes the pigeon and grabs it in her talons. The collision between the birds lasts 0.015 s. What is the final speed of the falcon and pigeon? Express your answer with the appropriate units. Ufp = Part B Value Fp,av = What is the average force on the pigeon during the impact? Express your answer with the appropriate units. μA Units Value ? Units ?

Mitch throws a 132—gram lump of clay at a 636 g target, which is at rest on a horizontal surface. After impact, the target slides 5.5 m before stopping. If the coefficient of friction is 0.68, find the speed of the clay before impact.
Muskox: In the arctic, male muskoxen compete for the attention of females by butting heads. On a cold day (-16.3 degree F), a young bull spies an older bull 13.9 m away and charges! The two meet in a head-on collision and come to a complete stop. The young bull has a mass of 681 kg and was running at a speed of 9.5 m/s. The older bull has a mass of 654 kg. The collision takes place on an icy patch, so you can ignore friction. (a) What was the speed of the older bull? (b) How many joules of energy were "lost" in this collision?

Hunter aims his gun vertically and shoots a 465 g game, which is positioned, on a telephone pole. The bullet has a mass of 60 g and is traveling at a velocity of 450 m/s upwards just before it hits the target. The bullet passes through the target, emerging with a velocity of 295 m/s upwards. How high does the target rise after being hit by the bullet?
A person is crossing a bridge. The bridge is 3.2 meters long and is 25 kg. One side of the bridge rests on the ground while the other side of the bridge is elevated 25 degrees above the ground. The end of the bridge that is elevated is connected to a rope, which is attached to a overhanging section of a cliff. The person walking across is 62 kg, and walks three quarters of the way to the rope end of the bridge then stops. Please determine the magnitude of the force that the ground exerts on the bridge.

The superheroine Xanaxa, with a mass of 69.9 kg, is in a hair-raising chase after the 72.7-kg arch-villain Lexlax. She leaps from the ground to the top of a 195-m-high building, then dives off and comes to rest at the bottom of a 15.7-m-deep excavation, where she finds Lexlax and neutralizes him. Does all this bring about a net gain or a net loss of gravitational potential energy? Gain Loss By how much? Answer with a positive number. Take g = 9.81 m/s?. Number J
You are renting a cabin in lake Tahoe that is near a hill. Your car is outside and is 2000kg. An avalanche starts from rest down a 370 slope to the horizontal . The hill is 100m high. The mass of the snow coming down the hill is 3000kg. You can consider the hill to be frictionless. The snow collides with the car at the bottom of the hill and the car and the snow move together until they come to a stop after 48m due to a drag force. What was the drag force?
