NASA's Saturn V rockets that launched astronauts to the moon were powered by the strongest rocket engine ever developed, providing 6.77 x 10° N of thrust while burning fuel at a rate of 2.63 x 103 kg/s. Calculate the engine's exhaust speed (in m/s). HINT m/s Need Help?
The mass of a particular eagle is twice that of a hunted pigeon. Suppose the pigeon is flying north at vi2 18.1 m/s when the eagle swoops down, grabs the pigeon, and flies off. At the instant right before the attack, the eagle is flying toward the pigeon at an angle 0 50.3° below the horizontal and a speed of vi,1 32.1 m/s. What is the speed of the eagle immediately after it catches its prey? speed: m/s What is the magnitude of the angle, measured from horizontal, at which the eagle is flying immediately after the strike? magnitude of angle:
Squids are the fastest marine invertebrates, using a powerful set of muscles to take in and then eject water in a form of jet propulsion that can propel them to speeds of over 11.5 m/s. Wwhat speed (in m/s) would a stationary 1.90 kg squid achieve by ejecting 0.115 kg of water (not included in the squid's mass) at 3.50 m/s? Neglect other forces, including the drag force on the squid. HINT m/s

ASAP PLS SHOW ALL WORK In the movie “The Martian”, an astronaut needs to propel himself through space to get to a spaceship. He attempts to do this by puncturing the glove in his spacesuit, which contains 3.00 kg of air under pressure. He is initially at rest, with a mass (including the spacesuit and air) of 75.0 kg. If the air comes out at 28.0 m/s at a constant rate, what final speed does he reach when the air is used up?
