- in Monkey and hunter case . my doctor want me to write a 5 lines about what I have learned from this screenshot. ( The simulation shows the classic physics situation of a monkey and hunter. In this case, the hunter is trying to tranquilize the monkey, so the monkey can be relocated to a better habitat. The monkey is clever—when the tranquilizer dart (in blue) leaves the gun, the monkey (in purple) lets go of the tree branch, and starts to fall straight down. Note that there is a net (not shown) at the bottom to catch the monkey, so the monkey won't get hurt.)arrow_forwardConceptual Problem 4.Suppose you are inside a train where you cannot see what is going on outside.

- B. Critical Thinking. Answer the Questionarrow_forwardKindly provide the solution to the following question using the GRASS method. Free Body Diagrams and Problem Solving (Dynamics Unit): A whale travels 25.0 km [E 30° N] and then moves 45.0 km [N 43.0° W]. What is the total displacement of the whale? The image attached is a guide on how to use the GRASS method on a question (similar to this) and the other image are the formulas for this unit. Please make sure to show all your work using the formulas and GRASS method.arrow_forwardPart C: Density of Water In this part, we will try to measure or calculate the density of water. As we have learnedin the lecture, the density of any matter will be the ratio of the mass of the given matterand the volume of the matter. We will have to obtain the data for the mass and the volumeof that given amount of water. We will use a rectangle container for this purpose. If we measurethe length, the width of the container, and if we pour the water in the container, we can calculatethe volume of the water. To get the mass of the water, we will measure the mass of the emptycontainer first, we will then measure the mass of the container with the water inside. The differenceof this two mass will be the net mass of the water that we are interested. We will do three trials. We will just put different amount of water in the container. Different amount of water will give you different height, but the length and the width of the container is the same. Since this…arrow_forward
