Question

9. An owl is carrying a mouse to the chicks in its nest. The owl is at that time is 4 m west and 10.5 m above the center of the 34 cm diameter nest, and flying east at 3.1 m/s at an angle 29° below the horizontal when it accidentally drops the mouse. Part (a) Calculate the horizontal position of the mouse when it has fallen 10.5 m, assuming the nest is at the origin of a coordinate system with east being positive. Part (b) How far from the east edge of the nest did the mouse fall, in centimeters?

Expert Solution

Step 1
