Chapter 6, Problem 50P

(choose chapter or problem)

BIO Spiraling Up.? 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 that 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 (a) the bird’s speed relative to the ground; (b) the bird’s acceleration (magnitude and direction); and (c) the angle between the bird’s velocity vector and the horizontal.
