Birds of prey typically rise upward on thermals. The paths these birds take may be spiral-like. You can model the spiral motion as uniform circular motion combined with a constant upward velocity. Assume the a bird completes a circle of radius 6.00 m every 5.00 s and rises vertically at a constant rate of 3.00 m/s. Determine the bird's direction of acceleration in degrees above the horizontal.

It is common to see birds of prey rising upward on thermals. The paths they take may be spiral-like. You can model the spiral motion as uniform circular motion combined with a constant upward velocity. Assume a bird completes a circle of radius 6.00 m every 5.00 s and rises vertically at a constant rate of 3.00 m/s. Determine the speed of the bird relative to the ground.
You can use the formula for centripetal acceleration OR You have to calculate the average acceleration directly from the definition, a = delta v / delta t. You have to first get a_x by using the velocity's initial and final x components, do a_y from the y components, and then use the Pythagorean formula to get the magnitude of the acceleration vector.
