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...

An osprey drops a fish from an unknown height above the water. The osprey was flying at 12 m/s at an angle of 30 degrees below the horizontal at the moment the fish dropped from its grasp as shown in Figure 5. 2.5 seconds later the fish hits the water. The choice of a coordinate system is arbitrary, but for this problem use the coordinate system shown with the y axis going vertically upward and the x axis with the...

4. A bird is flying along the +x-direction at a height 8.0 m above the ground with a constant speed 15 m/s. When the bird passes directly overhead of a shooter, the shooter fires his gun. a) At what angle above the ground should the shooter fire the gun such that the bullet hits the bird? Assume the speed of the bullet is 20 m/s. b) What should be the minimum height for the bird to fly at such that...

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...
