Chapter 3, Problem 3.59(choose chapter or problem)
A peregrine falcon (Fig. P3.24) is the fastest bird, fl ying at a speed of 200 mi/h. Nature has adapted the bird to reach such a speed by placing baffl es in its nose to prevent air from rushing in and slowing it down. Also, the birds eyes adjust their focus faster than the eyes of any other creature, so the falcon can focus quickly on its prey. Assume a peregrine falcon is moving horizontally at its top speed at a height of 100 m above the ground when it brings its wings into its sides and begins to drop in free fall. How far will the bird fall vertically while traveling horizontally a distance of 100 m?
