Question
The mass of a particular eagle is twice that of a hunted pigeon. Suppose the pigeon is flying north at vi2 =16.9 m/s when the eagle swoops down, grabs the pigeon, and flies off. At the instant right before the attack, the eagle is flying toward the pigeon at an angle ?=48.7° below the horizontal and a speed of vi=37.7m/s.
What is the speed of the eagle immediately after it catches its prey?
speed:
What is the magnitude of the angle, measured from horizontal, at which the eagle is flying immediately after the strike?
magnitude of angle:

- A block (mass = 5.56 kg) is released from rest at the top of a frictionless ramp. 1.01 seconds after release, the block has a speed of 6.34 m/s. Calculate the angle of the ramp in degrees as measured from the horizontal.arrow_forwardAs part of an obstacle course, an athlete must kick a soccer ball into a 1 meter wide and 10 meter deep pit such that the ball hits a target at the bottom of the pit. In practice, a dynamics student that is participating in the race kicks the soccer ball such that the soccer ball will bounce off the far wall of the pit 5 meters below the surface and head towards the target. If the velocity of the ball before striking the wall at point at point A is v4 = 2.6i – 10j m, determine the t-component of the ) after striking the wall. The size of the ball and the target ball velocity vector (in are negligible relative to the dimensions of the pit, the gravity acceleration must be considered as g 10 m and the coefficient of restitution at point A is e =0.35. 5 m t 10 m 1m 三arrow_forwardTarzan grabs a vine hanging vertically from a tall tree when he is running at 9.3 m/s. a.

- A woman at an airport is rolling her suitcase (mass = 20 kg) at an initial velocity of 1 m/s by pulling on a strap at an angle of 30° above the horizontal with a force of 33 N. The woman starts to speed up when she realizes that she is late for her flight. She pulls the suitcase over a distance of 50 m as she walks to her gate. What is the speed of the suitcase when she reaches her gate? (You can neglect friction in this problem. Give your answer in m/s.)arrow_forwardAt a particular instant, a hot air balloon is 48.7m above a horizontal field and descending at a rate of 2.67m/s. At this instant, a girl who is riding in the gondola of the balloon throws a ball with a speed of 14.7m/s with a direction that is horizontal in the frame of the gondola. When the balloon lands on the ground, how far, in meters, is she from where the ball landed? Neglect air resistance.arrow_forwardA golfer hits a shot to a green that is elevated 2.50 m above the point where the ball is struck. The ball leaves the club at a speed of 19.5 m/s at an angle of 40.0° above the horizontal. It rises to its maximum height and then falls down to the green. Ignoring air resistance, find the speed of the ball just before it lands. V = iarrow_forward
