An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 3.00 m/s when the fish in her talons wiggles loose and falls into the lake 5.00 m below. Calculate the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water.

Respuesta :

Answer:

10 m/s

As water is still so the velocity of fish with respect to water is same as 10 m/s.

Explanation:

Initial velocity of fish in vertical direction, u = 0

h = 5 m

g = 10 m/s^2

Use third equation of motion

V^2 = u^2 + 2 g h

V^2 = 0 + 2 × 10 × 5

V^2 = 100

V = 10 m/s
