A 1.45 kg falcon catches a 0.515 kg dove from behind in midair. What is their velocity after impact if the falcon's velocity is

initially 26.5 m/s and the dove's velocity is 4.95 m/s in the same direction?

Answer:

Their velocity after the impact is 20.85 m/s.                            

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of falcon, m_1=1.45\ kg

Mass of dove, m_2=0.515\ kg

Initial speed of the falcon, u_1=26.5\ m/s

Initial speed of the dove, u_2=4.95\ m/s

We need to find the final velocity after the impact. When the falcon catches the dove, it will becomes the case of inelastic collision. The conservation of momentum will be :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{1.45\times 26.5+0.515\times 4.95}{(1.45+0.515)}\\\\V=20.85\ m/s

So, their velocity after the impact is 20.85 m/s.

Why is a solution of 4% acetic acid in 95% ethanol used to wash the crude aldol-dehydration product?
raketka [301]

A cold acetic acid solution is used to wash the residue of the reagent in preparation of an aldol condensation product after vacuum filtration.  The main reason in washing with the acetic acid rinse is to neutralize any sodium hydroxide.

The charges for four ions are sodium (Na) +1, calcium (Ca) +2, fluorine (F) –1, and sulfur (S) –2. Which would be an ionic bond
Ludmilka [50]
The correct answer would be B. It is the compound Na2S that forms an ionic bond from the given ion above. From the choices, it is the only compound that exist and is available. Metals cannot react with another metal as well as nonmetal to nonmetal.

Betelgeuse is the bright red star representing the left shoulder of the constellation Orion. All the following statements about
Sav [38]

Answer:

Option A; ITS SURFACE IS COOLER THAN THE SURFACE OF THE SUN.

Explanation:

A red supergiant star is a larger and brighter type of red giant star. Red supergiants are often variable stars and are between 200 to 2,000 times bigger than the Sun. Example is Betelgeuse.

Betelgeuse is one of the largest known stars, it has a diameter of about 700 times the size of the Sun or 600 million miles, it emits almost 7,500 times as much energy as the Sun, it has a rather low surface temperature (6000F compared to the Sun's 10,000F); this means that it has a more cooler surface than the Sun's surface.

This low temperature also means that the star will appear orange-red in color, and the combination of size and temperature makes it a kind of star called a red super giant.

Although, all the statements above are correct, the only one that can be inferred from the red color of Betelgeuse is that ITS SURFACE IS COOLER THAN THE SURFACE OF THE SUN.
