To protect their young in the nest, peregrine falcons will fly into birds of prey (such as ravens) at high speed. In one such episode, a 650g falcon flying at 19.0m/s hit a 1.60kg raven flying at 9.0m/s . The falcon hit the raven at right angles to its original path and bounced back at 5.0m/s . (These figures were estimated by the author as he watched this attack occur in northern New Mexico.) a) By what angle did the falcon change the raven's direction of motion?
Express your answer using two significant figures.
b) What was the raven's speed right after the collision?
Express your answer using two significant figures.

This problem has been solved! see the answera non-uniform fire escape ladder is 6.0m long whenextended to the icy alley below. it is held at the top by africtionless pivot, and there is neglibible frictional force fromthe icy surface at the bottom. the ladder weighs 250n, and it'scenter of gravity is 2.0m along the ladder from the bottom. amother and child of total weight 750n are on the ladder 1.5m fromthe pivot. the ladder makes an angle θ with the horizontal.find the magnitude and direction ofa) the force exerted by the icy alley on the ladderb) the force exerted by the ladder on the pivotc) do your answers in part a and b depend on the angle?

Aball is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 21.9 m/s straight upward, at an initial height of 51.6 m above the ground. the ball just misses the edge of the roof on its way down, as shown in the figure. (a) determine the time needed for the ball to reach its maximum height. (b) determine the maximum height. (c) determine the time needed for the ball to return to the height from which it was thrown, and the velocity of the ball at that instant. (d) determine the time needed for the ball to reach the ground. (e) determine the velocity and position of the ball at t = 5.35 s.
