Chapter 3, Problem 54GP
|| BIO Spiraling up. It is common to see birds of prey rising upward on thermals. The paths they take may be spiral-like. You can model the spiral motion as uniform circular motion combined with a constant upward velocity. Assume a bird completes a circle of radius 8.08 m every 5.00 s and vertically at a rate of 3.00m/s. Determine (a) the speed of the bird relative to the ground: (b) the birds acceleration (magnitude and direction), and (c) the angle between the bird’s velocity vector and the horizontal.

During new year, a fireworks shell is shot up in the air with an initial velocity of 65m/s at an angle of
70° above the horizontal. The shell is designed to ignite as it reached the highest point above the ground.
a. Find the height above the ground the shell will explode.
b. How long will it take for the shell to reach the highest point and explode?
c. What is the horizontal displacement of the shell when it explodes?
During World War I, the Germans had a gun called Big Bertha that was used to shell Paris. The shell had an initial speed of 1.42 km/s at an initial inclination of 65.7◦ to the horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2.
a) How far away did the shell hit in km.
b) How long was it in the air in s?
