    A seagull flying horizontally over the ocean at a constant speed of 2.55 m/s carries a small fish in its mouth. It accidentally lets go of the fish, and 2.30 s after the bird lets go, the fish lands in the ocean. Just before reaching the ocean, what is the horizontal component of the fish's velocity in m/s? Ignore air resistance. Assume the bird is initially traveling in the positive x direction. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your...

    An aircraft flying horizontally at a rate of 95.4 m/s drops a packet from a height of 1,242 meters. Determine the speed the package reaches at just the moment before touching the surface. Consider both speed components. If a body is dropped from a 401-foot-tall building, determine the time in seconds it takes to reach the ground. (Free fall) enter s as a unit of time. Vx h Vx VY

    5. A hawk flying at 15 m/s at an altitude of 180 m accidentally drops its prey. The parabolic trajectory of the falling prey is described by the equation y180- 45 until it hits the ground, where y is its height above the ground and is the horizontal distance traveled in meters. Calculate the distance traveled by the prey from the time it is dropped until the time it hits the ground. Express you answer correct to the nearest tenth...
