A 10 kg migratory swan cruises at 20m/s. A calculation that takes into ac-count the necessary forces shows that this motion requires 200W of mechanical power. If we assume an efficiency similar to humans (say, 25%), a reasonableassumption, then the metabolic power of the swan is significantly higher thanthis. The swan does not stop to eat during a long day of flying; it get theenergy it needs from fat stores. Assuming an efficiency similar to humans, after12 hours of flight.
Required:
a. How far has the swan traveled?
b. How much metabolic energy has it used?
c. What fraction of its body mass does it lose?

Acatapult is tested by roman legionnaires. they tabulate the results in a papyrus and 2000 years later the archaeological team reads (distances translated into modern units): range = 0.4 km; angle of launch = π/5 rad; landing height = launch height. what is the initial velocity of launch of the boulders if air resistance is negligible?
