A seagull flying horizontally over the ocean at a constant speed of 3.15 m/s carries a small fish in its mouth. It accidentally lets go of the fish, and 1.85 s after letting go the fish lands in the ocean. (a) Just before reaching the ocean, what is the horizontal component of the fish's velocity? Ignore air resistance. Assume the bird is initially traveling in the positive x direction. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) __________ m/s...

A 520.0 −g−g bird is flying horizontally at 2.50 m/s, not paying much attention, when it suddenly flies into a stationary vertical bar, hitting it 25.0 cm below the top (the figure (Figure 1)). The bar is uniform, 0.800 m long, has a mass of 1.80 kg , and is hinged at its base. The collision stuns the bird so that it just drops to the ground afterward (but soon recovers to fly happily away). a)What is the angular velocity...

You throw a ball straight up with an initial velocity of 18 m/s. It passes a tree branch on the way up at a height of 12.7 m. (A) How much additional time elapses before the ball passes the tree branch on the way back down (i.e. how much time passes between when the ball is moving upward at a height of 12.7 m to when the ball is moving downward at a height of 12.7 m)? Correct Answer was...
