Answer to Problem 7P

Rank the birds is (b),(a)=(e),(c),(d),(f).

Explanation of Solution

Write an expression to calculate the change in momentum of the bird.

Δp=mΔv=m(vfvi)

Here, Δp is the change in momentum, m is the mass of the bird, Δv is the change in velocity of the bird, vf is the final velocity and vi is the initial velocity of the bird.

Conclusion:

Consider east and north as positive perpendicular axes and south and west as negative perpendicular axes.

Substitute 200g for m, 10m/s for vf, 10m/s for vi in equation (I) to find Δp for bird (a).

Δp=(200g(1kg103g))(10m/s(10m/s))=(200×103kg)(20m/s)=4.0kgm/snorth

Substitute 200g for m, 10m/s i^ for vf, 10m/sj^ for vi in equation (I) to find Δp for bird (b).

Δp=(200g(1kg103g))(10m/s i^(10m/sj^))=(200×103kg)(10m/s i^+10m/sj^)=2.0kgm/s(i^+j^)=2.0kgm/s(east-south)

Use Pythagoras theorem to calculate the magnitude of the change in momentum.

|Δp|=(2.0kgm/s)2+(2.0kgm/s)2=2(2.0kgm/s)=2.8kgm/s

Substitute 200g for m, 20m/s for vf, 10m/s for vi in equation (I) to find Δp for bird (c).

Δp=(200g(1kg103g))(20m/s(10m/s))=(200×103kg)(30m/s)=6.0kgm/snorth

Substitute 400g for m, 20m/s for vf, 10m/s for vi in equation (I) to find Δp for bird (d).

Δp=(400g(1kg103g))(20m/s(10m/s))=(400×103kg)(30m/s)=12kgm/snorth

Substitute 400g for m, 20m/s for vf, 10m/s for vi in equation (I) to find Δp for bird (e).

Δp=(400g(1kg103g))(20m/s(10m/s))=(400×103kg)(10m/s)=4.0kgm/s=4.0kgm/ssouth

Substitute 400g for m, 30m/s i^ for vf, 10m/sj^ for vi in equation (I) to find Δp for bird (f).

Δp=(400g(1kg103g))(30m/s i^(10m/sj^))=(400×103kg)(30m/s i^+10m/sj^)=4.0kgm/s(3i^+1j^)=4.0kgm/s(3west-south)

Use Pythagoras theorem to calculate the magnitude of the change in momentum.

|Δp|=(3(4.0kgm/s))2+(4.0kgm/s)2=(32+12)(4.0kgm/s)=10(4.0kgm/s)=13kgm/s

Thus, rank the birds is (b),(a)=(e),(c),(d),(f).
